Living Well

Living well is the best revenge is a popular formulation, and probably a good strategy for a happy life.

Genghis Khan had a slightly chillier view:
"The greatest joy a man can know is to conquer his enemies and drive them before him. To ride their horses and take away their possessions. To see the faces of those who were dear to them bedewed with tears, and to clasp their wives and daughters in his arms"
