"Revenge is a dish best served cold."
When we are very angry and seek revenge, sometimes we act suddenly while we are still angry. Most of the time, the revenge would not work because we were clumsy and haven't thought of a plan. Or, we were rushed and so we were careless.
That's where this proverb comes in.
What it means is, "Take your time and do not act when you are angry. Allow yourself time to cool off so that you can think. If you are not fueled by blind anger, you will be able to think better and plan better. And then, my naughty friends.....your revenge may work."
And so, if you feel like serving up a big dish of Revenge....allow time for cooling off. Because, revenge is much better when cold.
(P.S. Revenge is bad, mmmm'kay! Be good boys and girls!)
