Srimad-Bhagavatam

SB Canto 1

SB 1.7.43, Purport:

A brāhmaṇa is accepted on the merit of qualification and not on the merit of simply being the son of a brāhmaṇa. But in spite of all this, Draupadī desired that Aśvatthāmā be at once released, and it was all the same a good sentiment for her. This means that a devotee of the Lord can tolerate all sorts of tribulation personally, but still such devotees are never unkind to others, even to the enemy. These are the characteristics of one who is a pure devotee of the Lord.
