Foresee insult, and make of it compliment, for it is cleverer to avoid insult than to avenge it. It is a great trick to make friends of those who wished to be rivals, and to turn into protectors of your honor those who threatened its injury... time for insult is taken from them, who must fill it with thanksgiving. It is to know how to live to be able to convert pain into pleasure--what was to have been pain, transform into trust.
