Revenge is a Dish Best Served Cold

   Today's B-List post is inspired by the phrase:
      "Revenge is a dish best served cold"
   cited in the opening of "Kill Bill Volume 1" as a "Klingon proverb".

   Actually, the phrase was first used by French writer Pierre Ambroise Francois
   Choderios de LaClos (1741-1803). He originally said it in French in his 1782
   book Les Liasons Dangereuses:
      "La vengeance est un plat qui se mange froid,"
