Ricky GervaisWhenever you are in anger, remember yourself. In that very remembering the focus changes, the gestalt changes. You become more and more centred. Anger remains there just on the periphery of your being, but you know now that it is separate from you. You are not angry, you are only a witness to it. Now it is up to you to choose to be angry or not to be angry. You are no more identified; hence the freedom to choose.

Patrick NessI was angry with him before. Iโm not really sure why. Maybe I was just angry that the world had become such a complicated place, that I have never known even a fraction of the truth about it.

Tricking someone into grief is one of the cruelest tricks a person can play, and itโs been played on me twice.
Veronica RothI try to look at it like an angry optimist. In other words, I'm not happy with the state of affairs that we have. The rise of nationalism under the guise of patriotism is so effed up, and underneath this banner of "patriotism" is the worst of nationalist rhetoric: racism, xenophobia, sexism, pitting communities against each other, implicitly inciting race wars and stuff like that. So that's the angry part of it, but I'm incredibly optimistic about the potential to redefine what it means to be a "patriotic American" .

We were so stripped and robbed of our background, we wind up with nothing.
Fannie Lou HamerThe bow of God's wrath is bent, and His arrows made ready upon the string. Justice points the arrow at your heart and strings the bow.

Dejan StojanovicToo many Christians become bitter and angry in the conflict. If we descend into hatefulness, we have already lost the battle.

Ziad K. AbdelnourNothing is improved by anger, unless it be the arch of a cat's back. A man with his back up is spoiling his figure. People look none the handsomer for being red in the face. It takes a great deal out of a man to get into a towering rage; it is almost as unhealthy as having a fit. . . . Whatever wrong I suffer, it can not do me half so much hurt as being angry about it.
Charles SpurgeonOver the last two or so decades, there's been an increase in thinking among the Left, liberals, intellectuals in the direction of so-called spontaneity.
