Anyone can become angry - that is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way - that is not easy.Aristotle , The Nichomachean Ethics.

If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself but to your own estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment. Marcus Aurelius

We know too much and feel too little. At least we feel too little of those creative emotions from which a good life springs. em>Bertrand Russell
