Quotes about Anger


Anger doesn't win games

Gary Beban

Anger ventilated often hurries towards forgiveness; anger concealed often hardens into revenge.

Saint Gregory I

Lucius Annaeus Sivananda

Anger manages everything badly.

Lucius Annaeus statius

Anger is very difficult for me to express. I have a tremendous amount of anger but I like to save it ... for my loved ones.

Susan Sullivan

Anger may in time change to gladness; vexation may be succeeded by content. But a kingdom that has once been destroyed can never come again into being; norcan the dead ever be brought back to life. Hence the enlightened ruler is heedful, and the good general full of caution. This is the way to keep a country at peace and an army intact.

Tzu Sun

He who angers you conquers you.

Elizabeth Kenny
