You might strengthen this to {nIvqu'}. E.g.:
bortaS nIvqu' 'oH bortaS'e'
Revenge is the best revenge. TKW
'etlh QorghHa'lu'chugh ragh 'etlh nIvqu' 'ej jejHa'choH
Even the best blade will rust and grow dull unless it is
cared for. TKW
yIntaHbogh qagh jablu'DI' reH nIvqu' qagh
Gagh is always best when served live. TKW
{QaQqu'} also works, though not as well:
bortaS bIr jablu'DI' reH QaQqu' nay'
Revenge is a dish best served cold. TKD
Heghlu'DI' mobbe'lu'chugh QaQqu' Hegh wanI'
Death is an experience best shared. TKW
