Anger Management Quotes

awareness.
James Thurber

beyond what you were.

muscles, a headache and a sore jaw from clenching your teeth.

control you.

the gods.

Speak when you are angry and you will make the best speech you will
ever regret.

throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.

peace of mind.
