A comment on Why People Feel Like Victims. Parent comment
"‘He insulted me, hit me, beat me, robbed me’–for those who don’t brood on this, hostility is stilled.
"Hostilities aren’t stilled through hostility, regardless.
"Hostilities are stilled through non-hostility: this, an unending truth.
"Unlike those who don’t realize that we’re here on the verge of perishing, those who do: their quarrels are stilled."
--Dhammapada, ch. 1, circa 1st century common era (trans. Thanissaro Bhikkhu)
