“A last trick is to become personal, insulting and rude as soon as you perceive that your opponent has the upper hand. In becoming personal you leave the subject altogether, and turn your attack on the person by remarks of an offensive and spiteful character. This is a very popular trick, because everyone is able to carry it into effect.”
― Arthur Schopenhauer, The Art of Always Being Right

“One should forgive one's enemies, but not before they are hanged.”
