Revenge

Napoleon, who would rather die than be seen to lose face, thought that revenge was a dish best served cold.

Illya, who combined the education of a scientist with the dark instincts of the Russian soul, believed that you could make medicine of great revenge to cure deadly grief.

Mr Waverly, who had lived longer and seen more than either of them, knew that revenge, at first though sweet, bitter ere long back on itself recoils. Which was why UNCLE had firm policies against acts of vengeance.

He did not consider the war against Thrush to be vengeance, as such.
