Mother, I am wretched, but I am not bitter, and my rival will revenge me." "Uxmoor, your going abroad is the only answer she shall have. The wisest man, in these matters, who ever lived has left a rule of conduct to every well-born man a rule which, believe me, is wisdom itself: "Le bruit est pour le fat, la plainte est pour le sot; L'honnete homme trompe'; s'e'loigne, et ne dit mot."

Charles Reade - A Woman-Hater
