Anger Quotes

“Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.”

“There are such people, unfortunates who have to be angry before they can feel alive. I had sometimes wondered if it were some old relic of pagan superstition, the fear of risking the jealousy and anger of the gods, that made such people afraid of even small happinesses. Or perhaps it was only that tragedy is more self-important than laughter.”

“Anger can serve a useful purpose if it is justified and directed appropriately. But when it's only a substitute for self-loathing and a justification for cruelty to others, the trigger in your brain can become horribly destructive and addicted to that emotion. It's like a tornado that blows away all of your pleasure and replaces it with emotional poison.”

“Sometimes when we're feeling sad, it's important just to feel the sadness. Like a snake shedding its skin, old feelings of remorse and regret and hurt and anger often have to come up in order to be released. On the other side we're a better person, capable of a happier life...who we are when we're no longer burdened by the buried feelings that weighed us down, or the self - defeating patterns that the pain produced.”

“Certain people give off positive energy, others negative. It's the quality of someone's being, a measure of the love with which they've led their lives. It also reflects the inner work they've done, their efforts to heal anger, hatred, or self-loathing, which poison us like toxic fumes.”

“The cross stands as a mystery because it is foreign to everything we exalt- self over principle, power over meekness, the quick fix over the long haul, cover-up over confession, escapism over confrontation, conform over sacrifice, feeling over commitment, legality over justice, the body over the spirit, anger over forgiveness, man over God.”

“No one who has any self-respect stays in Ireland, but flees afar as though from a country that has undergone the visitation of an angered Jove.”

“The difference between impossible and possible is a willing heart.”

“Purpose drives the process by which we become what we are capable of being.”

“I wanted to be true to whatever inner logic there was in myself. I didn’t want to be true to any one group of people in the world. I wanted to be true to my own anger. I’ve always been afraid of belonging to groups. I don’t want to be a Democrat or a Republican or a Communist or a Fascist, or—just an all-American. I wanted to be, as far as I can be, myself, and find out what I think, and get it out in the open and then intellectualize about it. And see what I think.”

“ലാപ്‌വിംഗിന്റെ ബുള്ളറ്റ് ഓടിച്ച ആകാശമാണ് ഞാൻ മുങ്ങിയ വെള്ളത്തിൽ നിറച്ച കാട്ടുപോത്തിന്റെ കൊമ്പിൽ നിന്നാണ് ജനിച്ചത് മുത്ത് വേപ്പ് മരത്തിന്റെ ചുവട്ടിൽ നിഷ്‌ക്രിയ കണ്ണിൽ കറുത്ത സുന്ദരിയുടെ മൃദുവായ കൈകാലുകളുടെ അലങ്കാരം ആസ്വദിക്കുകയായിരുന്നു മഴയിൽ നനഞ്ഞ സ്വർണ്ണ-പുഷ്പം കോയിഫ്യൂറിന്റെ കെട്ടഴിച്ചു”

“There is no need to find a solution. 'You' just have to keep Seeing! Keep Seeing how much the anger has increased, how much it has decreased. As the goal (upey; the Self) has been attained, there is no need to find a solution. By looking for a solution, the Self's function as the Knower (Gnatapanu) goes away, meaning that the real benefit goes away. 'This much tension has arisen, it has increased by this much, now it has gone away;' You have to keep Seeing all these gneyos (objects to be known). Remain as the Knower whereas by finding solutions, mental peace (thandak) will prevail [temporarily].”

“The danger lies in how your ‘surplus time’ is spent. If the ‘surplus time’ is spent for one’s own Soul, then it is (like) watering your own farm, but when it is used for other things [other than one’s own self], it is wasted water. Therefore, anyone whose ‘surplus time’ is spent on the Self, all his time is considered to have gone towards one’s own Self [The Soul].”

“Anger gets you into trouble, ego keeps you in trouble.”

“The fact is that when you admit that you can’t blame anyone or anything else, you begin to blame yourself. The human mind gives up trying to find an executioner, but still it must blame someone. Anger that is not expressed tends to turn inward and, instead, attacks the very one who feels it. You move from anger and guilt into depression.”
