One man throws stones at another man's house, denting his walls.

A second man comes up and asks, Friend, why do you stone his house so?

Says the first, I found him stoning mine yesterday, so it is justified.

Asks the second, How so?

Replies the first, We now both have dented houses. We are equal.

Says the second, This is not justice, for it solves no problems.
This is revenge, and one must take care not to confuse one with the other.
