Aphorism - 291, 292
291It is noble to pardon thine own injurers, but not so noble to pardon wrongs done to others. Nevertheless pardon these too, but when needful, calmly avenge.
292When Asiatics massacre, it is an atrocity; when Europeans, it is a military exigency. Appreciate the distinction and ponder over this worlds virtues.
All this makes us feel very deeply the foolishness of human judgments based on self-interest and the reactions of the ego.
So long as men remain in their present state of ignorance, their judgments and opinions are worthless in the face of Truth and should be considered as such.
