"I have often been downcast, but never in despair; I regard our hiding as a dangerous adventure, romantic and interesting at the same time. In my diary I treat all the privations as amusing. I have made up my mind now to lead a different life from other girls and, later on, different from ordinary housewives. My start has been so very full of interest, and that is the sole reason why I have to laugh at the humorous side of the most dangerous moments."
Anne Frank
"Anger is never without a reason but seldom a good one."
Benjamin Franklin
"Whatever is begun in anger ends in shame."
Benjamin Franklin
"He that will not sail till all dangers are over must never put to sea."
Dr. Thomas Fuller
"Two things a man should never be angry at: what he can help, and what he cannot help."
Dr. Thomas Fuller
"The common dogma [of fundamentalists] is fear of modern knowledge, inability to cope with the fast change in a scientific-technological society, and the real breakdown in apparent moral order in recent years.... That is why hate is the major fuel, fear is the cement of the movement, and superstitious ignorance is the best defence against the dangerous new knowledge. ... When you bring up arguments that cast serious doubts on their cherished beliefs you are not simply making a rhetorical point, you are threatening their whole Universe and their immortality. That provokes anger and quite frequently violence. ... Unfortunately you cannot reason with them and you even risk violence in confronting them. Their numbers will decline only when society stabilizes, and adapts to modernity."
G Gaia
"Anger and intolerance are the enemies of correct understanding."
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi
"During the first period of a man's life the greatest danger is not to take the risk. When once the risk has really been taken, then the greatest danger is to risk too much."
Kahlil Gibran
"When a man dwells on the objects of sense, he creates an attraction for them; attraction develops into desire, and desire breeds anger."
Bhagavad Gita
"Governing sense, mind and intellect, intent on liberation, free from desire, fear and anger, the sage is forever free."
Bhagavad Gita
"A man is measured by the size of things that anger him."
Geof Greenleaf
"The will to believe is perhaps the most powerful, but certainly the most dangerous human attribute."
John P. Grier
"Nothing counts so much as family, the rest are just strangers." (as Nicholas Earpp in Wyatt Earp, 1994)"
Gene Hackman
"My own suspicion is that the universe is not only stranger than we suppose, but stranger than we can suppose."
John Burdon Sanderson Haldane
"We are getting into semantics again. If we use words, there is a very grave danger they will be misinterpreted."
H. R. Haldeman
"...for it is a truth, which the experience of all ages has attested, that the people are commonly most in danger when the means of insuring their rights are in the possession of those of whom they entertain the least suspicion."
Alexander Hamilton
"How come the dove gets to be the peace symbol? How about the pillow? It has more feathers than the dove, and it doesn't have that dangerous beak."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"What is it that makes a complete stranger dive into an icy river to save a solid-gold baby? Maybe we'll never know."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"Contrary to popular belief, the most dangerous animal is not the lion or tiger or even the elephant. The most dangerous animal is a shark riding on an elephant, just trampling and eating everything they see."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"It makes me mad when people say I turned and ran like a scared rabbit. Maybe it was like an angry rabbit, who was going to fight in another fight, away from the first fight."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
