ANGER.
Anger is like
A full-hot horse; who being allowed his way,
Self-mettle tires him.
King Henry VIII., Act i. Sc 1. SHAKESPEARE.
Being once chased, he cannot
Be reined again to temperance; then he speaks
What's in his heart.
Coriolanus, Act iii. Sc. 3. SHAKESPEARE.
I am very sorry, good Horatio,
That to Laertes I forgot myself,
* * * * *
But, sure, the bravery of his grief did put me
Into a towering passion.
Hamlet, Act v. Sc. 2. SHAKESPEARE.
Senseless, and deformed,
Convulsive Anger storms at large; or, pale
And silent, settles into fell revenge.
The Seasons: Spring. J. THOMSON.
Be advised;
Heat not a furnace for your foe so hot
That it do singe yourself: we may outrun.
By violent swiftness, that which we run at,
And lose by over-running.
King Henry VIII., Act i. Sc. 1. SHAKESPEARE.
Never anger made good guard for itself.
Antony and Cleopatra, Act iv. Sc. 1. SHAKESPEARE.
