APAD: Never wrestle with pigs.

"Never wrestle with pigs. You both get dirty and the pig likes it."  

—  George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)

Meaning: 
Don't engage in a fight with an opponent who enjoys and/or benefits from the fight even without winning it.

"Positive energy is much more powerful than negative energy. If you stay positive, the negativity can't touch you."  - Jon Gordon
