Earl of ClarendonThinkers

Anger is an affected madness, compounded of pride and folly, and an intention to do commonly more mischief than it can bring to pass; and. without doubt, of all passions which actually disturb the mind of man, it is most in our power to extinguish, at least, to suppress and correct, our anger.

Anger is the most impotent passion that accompanies the mind of man. It effects nothing it goes about; and hurts the man who is possessed by it more than any other against whom it is directed.

Repentance is a magistrate that exacts the strictest duty and humility.
