"When would they [the men of 'ressentiment'] achieve the ultimate, subtlest, sub limest triumph of revenge?

Undoubtedly if they succeeded in poisoning the consci ences of the fortunate with their own misery, with all misery, so that one day t he fortunate began to be ashamed of their good fortune and perhaps said one to a nother: 'it is disgraceful to be fortunate: there is too much misery!' But no gr eater or more calamitous misunderstanding is possible than for the happy, well-c onstituted, powerful in soul and body, to begin to doubt their right to happines s in this fashion" (Nietzsche, 'Genealogy of Morals', 3:14). Oh, the delightful, delightful irony!
