"If a small thing has the power to make you angry, does that not indicate something about your size?" ― Sydney J. Harris Topic(s): Anger More From Sydney J. Harris "Democracy is the only system that persists in asking the powers that be whether they are the powers that ought to be." "The two words ‘information’ and ‘communication’ are often used interchangeably, but they signify quite different things. Information is giving out; communication is getting through." "When I hear somebody sigh, ‘Life is hard,’ I am always tempted to ask, ‘Compared to what?’" More In Anger "I’ve been trying to learn how to not be so conflicted about things like my own anger. I’ve always had a place in my music for my anger as a way of compensating for not having a mechanism to express it in my everyday life. So I’ve been trying to be more true to myself, and that helps me to chill out a little bit. But politically, uh-uh. No."― Ani DiFranco "Expressing anger is a form of public littering."― Willard Gaylin "I may have been the only candidate in America who failed to ride the wave of anti-establishment anger to victory."― Mickey Kaus
