Matt. 5:39 But I say to you not to resist evil: but if one strike thee on thy right cheek, turn to him also the other: patience under injuries and affronts, and to be willing even to suffer still more, rather than to indulge the desire of revenge: but what is further added does not strictly oblige according to the letter, for neither did Christ nor St. Paul turn the other cheek. St. John 18., and Acts 23.
