"Let us not look back in anger, nor forward in fear, but around in awareness." ― James Thurber Topic(s): Anger More From James Thurber "The nation that complacently and fearfully allows its artists and writers to become suspected rather than respected is no longer regarded as a nation possessed with humor or depth." "Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?" "I’m 65 and I guess that puts me in with the geriatrics. But if there were fifteen months in every year, I’d only be 48. That’s the trouble with us. We number everything. Take women, for example. I think they deserve to have more than twelve years between the ages of 28 and 40." More In Anger "Growing up in a particular neighborhood, growing up in a working-class family, not having much money, all of those things fire you and can give you an edge, can give you an anger."― Gary Oldman "Never go to bed angry, stay up and fight."― William Congreve "I’m not a screamer. I’m confrontational, but I don’t think that translates into anger."― Rachel Maddow
