Book Reports / thesis statement for "the count of monte cristo" theme essay [5]

Now that I think about it, I think "satisfaction" would be a better fit than "justifaction"
& I don't think Dantes went too far with his revenge, even though he has a thought that he did take it to far when a innocent child was murdered.

Do you think this is better/more simple?:

The satisfaction in revenge is only enjoyed by Dantès himself, whether the revenge was taken to its wanted maxima or it went too far.
