im·pla·ca·ble
/imˈplakəb(ə)l/
Unable to be appeased
or pacified. Relentless.
Unyielding in hostility
or purpose.
There is a kind of person who cannot be bought off. Not because the price wasn't high enough — but because they have already decided what they will not trade.
Implacable is not anger. It is not stubbornness. It is the settled quality of a will that has found its object and refuses distraction. The person who cannot be appeased on certain things is not difficult — they are clear.
Appeasement requires that something in you
is still available for purchase.
Implacable means that thing is gone.
This is the virtue of the person who has decided what they are for — and what they are therefore against — with enough conviction that no amount of pressure, social cost, or offered comfort can move the line. Not rigidity. Clarity.
