和大怨，必有余怨，安可以为善？
是以圣人执左契而不责于人。有德司契，无德司彻。
天道无亲，常与善人。

Wang Bi (226–249 CE)

James Legge (1891)

When a reconciliation is effected (between two parties) after a great animosity, there is sure to be a grudge remaining (in the mind of the one who was wrong). In the Way of Heaven, there is no partiality of love; it is always on the side of the good man.
