“When one does another person an injustice, in some mysterious way it does one good to discover (or to persuade oneself) that the injured party has also behaved badly or unfairly in some little matter or other; it is always a relief to the conscience if one can apportion some measure of guilt to the person one has betrayed.” IfsWayLittlesPersonsDoeMatterPartyConscienceGuiltInjusticeOneselfBetrayalMysteriousReliefBetrayedInjuredMysterious Ways Author:Stefan Zweig

“Calumny is a monstrous vice: for, where parties indulge in it, there are always two that are actively engaged in doing wrong, and one who is subject to injury.

The person traduced is doubly injured--first by him who propagates, and secondly by him who credits the calumny.” GivingFirstsPersonsTwoPartySubjectsTruth IsVicesCreditEngagedInjuryIndulgeAbsentInjuredMonstrousIndulge InCalumnyCalumny Is Author:Herodotus
