Miles quotes
Complaint is a tacit plea for help, for reform, for...continuation. Complaint is an attempt to shuffle off the responsibility for action onto another. To act is to obliterate the need for complaint. Act or do not act, but don't complain.
"I did it for you" is an attempt to create guilt in the other party. Usually followed by an attempt to make the other party feel sorry for the speaker.
Paraphrased from Komarr, a Miles Vorkosigan adventure by Lois McMaster Bujold.
