Anger Quotes

Anger is a momentary madness, so control your passion or it will control you.
G. M. Trevelyan
-
Anger begins in folly, and ends in repentance.
Pythagoras
-
There is always something to do. There are hungry people to feed, naked people to clothe, sick people to comfort and make well. And while I don't expect you to save the world I do think it's not asking too much for you to love those with whom you sleep, share the happiness of those whom you call friend, engage those among you who are visionary and remove from your life those who offer you depression, despair and disrespect.
Yolande Cornelia "Nikki" Giovanni, Jr.
-
In a controversy the instant we feel anger we have already ceased striving for the truth, and have begun striving for ourselves. This is a helpful pointer for our everyday presence-practice. Can you catch yourself angrily defending your point of view or attacking the other person's? There's the ego.
Gautama Buddha
-

Aristotle

Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.
Mark Twain

As a teenager, I began to question the Great Christian Sorting System. My gay friends in high school were kind and funny and loved me, so I suspected that my church had placed them in the wrong category... Injustices in the world needed to be addressed and not ignored. Christians weren't good; people who fought for peace and justice were good. I had been lied to, and in my anger at being lied to about the containers, I left the church. But it turns out, I hadn't actually escaped the sorting system. I had just changed the labels.

With gentleness overcome anger. With generosity overcome meanness. With truth overcome deceit.
Gautama Buddha

When you assume negative intent, you're angry. If you take away that anger and assume positive intent, you will be amazed. Your emotional quotient goes up because you are no longer almost random in your response.
Indra Nooyi
-
In many ways, anger is a misdirected plea for love.
Karen Salmansohn
-
Sometimes it's better to be kind than to be right. We do not need an intelligent mind that speaks, but a patient heart that listens. You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger.
Gautama Buddha
-
I understand a fury in your words But not your words.
William Shakespeare
