Quotes and Sayings on Anger

=======================

Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were.

Cherie Carter-Scott

Buddha

Anger will never disappear so long as thoughts of resentment are cherished in the mind. Anger will disappear just as soon as thoughts of resentment are forgotten.

Buddha

Confucius

Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to be, since you cannot make yourself as you wish to be.
