"The way I see it, you helping him hurts him more than I just did.  He doesn't stand up for himself like he just did, he'll get beaten around and others will walk all over him.  At that point you might as well be dead.  I taught him a lesson though.  You wanna make it, you gotta be strong.  The stronger you are, the further you can go.  That's why one of these days, I'm gonna leave this place.  Every day I'm getting stronger, and soon I'll be strong enough to bring everyone to their knees in agony as I waltz out of this place laughing my ass off."
