extent, at the right time, with the right motive, and in the right way, that is not for every one, nor is it easy.
Aristotle

Henry Ward Beecher
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.
William Blake
There is no hate without fear. Hate is crystallized fear, fear's dividend, fear objectivized. We hate what we fear and so
where hate is, fear will be lurking. Thus we hate what threatens our person, our liberty, our privacy, our income, our popularity,
our vanity and our dreams and plans for ourselves. If we can isolate this element in what we hate we may be able to cease from hating.
Analyse in this way the hatred of ideas or of the kind of people whom we have once loved and whose faces are preserved in Spirits of
Anger. Hate is the consequence of fear; we fear something before we hate; a child who fears noises becomes the man who hates them.
Cyril Connolly
Where two discourse, if the one's anger rise,
The man who lets the contest fall is wise.
Euripides

Pythagoras
Anger is never without an argument, but seldom with a good one.
George Savile
If you strike a child, take care that you strike it in anger, even at the risk of
maiming it for life. A blow in cold blood neither can nor should be forgiven.
