Barry Eisler Quote
She nodded. At first what I thought I wanted was revenge. I kept thinking of how to hurt you, how to cause you pain, like the pain you caused me. I wasn’t surprised. And I resented you for that, she went on, because I’ve always believed hate is such an unworthy emotion. So weak and ultimately pointless. I marveled briefly at how innocent a life someone would have to have led for such a philosophy to emerge credible and intact, and for a second I loved her for it.
