Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one getting burned.

Anyone can become angry -- that is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way -- this is not easy.
Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
He best keeps from anger who remembers that God is always looking upon him.
Plato (BC 427-BC 347) Greek philosopher.
Anxiety is the rust of life, destroying its brightness and weakening its power. A childlike and abiding trust in Providence is its best preventive and remedy.
