1. In Paradise Lost, John Milton wrote "Revenge, at first though sweet, / Bitter ere long back on itself recoils."
2. Emile M. Cioran said, "Revenge is not always sweet, once it is consummated we feel inferior to our victim."
3. Mason Cooley said, "Revenge is sweet but not nourishing.".
4. Alfred Hitchcock had a similar feeling when he said, "Revenge is sweet and not fattening."
But no matter what people say, science shows that revenge is pleasurable. According to a Swiss study, acts of revenge stimulate an area of our brain that is involved with enjoyment or satisfaction. However, we use another area of our brain (the prefrontal cortex) to weigh the costs of seeking revenge to the satisfaction we might receive. It is this area that keeps most of us from becoming self-destructive.

"Revenge is a dish best served cold. And Kirk ... it is very cold ... in space."
- Khan Noonian Singh, Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan
This line is cited as an 'ancient Klingon proverb', but it is actually from the 18th century French novel 'Les liaisons dangereuses'.
