Anger is a kind of temporary madness.
Anger is one of the sinews of the soul; he that lacks it has a maimed mind.
Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor Hell a fury like a woman scorned.
No man can think clearly when his fists are clenched.
Anger begins in folly, and ends in repentance.
The fire you kindle for your enemy often burns yourself more than him.
Anger is the most important of passions. It effects nothing is goes about, and hurts the one who is possessed by it more than the one against whom it is directed.
He that would be angry and sin not, must not be angry with anything but sin.
To be angry is to revenge the faults of others on ourselves.
Anger is one of the sinews of the soul.
Never forget what a man has said to you when he was angry. If he has charged you with anything, you had better look it up.
Temperate anger well becomes the wise.
When anger rushes, unrestrained, to action, like a hot steed, it stumbles in its way.
If a man meets with injustice, it is not required that he shall not be roused to meet it; but if he is angry after he has had time to think upon it, that is sinful. The flame is not wrong, but the coals are.
Anger ventilated often hurries towards forgiveness; anger concealed often hardnes into revenge.
Keep cool and you command everybody.
Anger may be kindled in the noblest breasts; but in these the slow droppings of an unforgiving temper never take the shape and consistency of enduring hatred.
Beware of the fury of a patient man.
A man that does not know how to be angry, does not know how to be good. Now and then a man should be shaken to the core with indignation over things evil.
There is not in nature, a thing that makes man so deformed, so beastly, as doth intemperate anger.
To be angry about trifles is mean and childish; to rage and be furious is brutish; and to maintain perpetual wrath is akin to the practice and temper of devils; but to prevent and suppress rising resentment is wise and glorious, is manly and divine.
Men often make up in wrath what they want in reason.
Life appears to me too short to be spent in nursing animosity or registering wrong.
Consider how much more you often suffer from your anger and grief, than from your anger and grief, than from those very things for which you are angry and grieved.
The greatest remedy for anger is delay.
Wise anger is like fire from the flint; there is a great ado to bring it out; and when it does come, it is out again immediately.
