House of correction
"If anyone behaves wickedly, or rudely, or deceitfully, or in any vexatious or offensive way towards you, do not speak out against him, nor quarrel or complain anywhere. For that person will be like that to others, and others will not be patient. So leave the retaliation to others. The main idea in the discomforts of life should always be that retribution is also a discomfort, so let it be among the other evils of life. Is he a wise man who sets fire to his own head? That is what a wrathful man does."
