““It is always easier to hear an insult and not retaliate than have the courage to fight back against someone stronger than yourself; we can always say we're not hurt by the stones others throw at us, and it's only at night -- when we're alone and our wife or our husband or our school friend is asleep -- that we can silently grieve over our own cowardice.””
