| Anger ventilated often hurries toward
forgiveness; and concealed often hardens into revenge.
Edward G. Bulwer-Ly
Anger is one letter short of danger.
For every minute you are angry, you lose
sixty seconds of happiness.
Eat a third and drink a third and leave the
remaining third of your stomach empty. Then, when you get
angry, there will be sufficient room for your rage.
Babylonian Talmud
There is nothing more galling to angry people
than the coolness of those on whom they wish to vent their
spleen.
Alexandre Dumas
I was angry with my friend
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
A Poison Tree.
William Blake
Be not angry that you cannot make others
as you wish them to be, since you cannot make yourself as
you wish to be.
Thomas a Kempis
Let us not look back in anger or forward
in fear, but around in awareness.
James Thurber
My mother used to say, "He who angers you,
conquers you!" But my mother was a saint.
Elizabeth Kenny
Anybody can become angry, that is easy; but
to be angry with the right person, and to the right degree,
and at the right time, and for the right purpose, and in
the right way, that is not within everybody's power, that
is not easy.
Aristotle
Think when you are enraged at anyone, what
would probably become of your sentiments should he die during
the dispute.
William Shenstone
No man can think clearly when his fist are
clenched.
George Jean Nathan
The flame of anger, bright and brief, sharpens
the barb of love.
Walter S. Landor
Anger is a momentary madness, so control
your passion or it will control you.
Horace Walpole
Anger is one of the sinews of the soul; he
that lacks it has a maimed mind.
Thomas Fuller
