  1. A quotation from Horace

    The Rash, the Lazy, Lover, none’s so wild,
    But may be tame, and may be wisely mild,
    If they consult true Vertue’s Rules with care,
    And lend to good advice a patient ear.
     
    [Invidus, iracundus, iners, vinosus, amator,
    nemo adeo ferus est, ut non mitescere possit,
    si modo culturae patientem commodet aurem.]

    Horace (65–8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
    Epistles [Epistularum, Letters], Book 1, ep. 1 “To Maecenas,” l. 38ff (1.1.38-40) (20 BC) [tr. Creech (1684)]

  5. A quotation from Eric Hoffer

    When hopes and dreams are loose in the streets, it is well for the timid to lock doors, shutter windows and lie low until the wrath has passed. For there is often a monstrous incongruity between the hopes, however noble and tender, and the action which follows them. It is as if ivied maidens and garlanded youths were to herald the four horsemen of the apocalypse.

    Eric Hoffer (1902-1983) American writer, philosopher, longshoreman
    True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements, Part 1, ch. 1, § 5 (1951)

  11. A quotation from Euripides

    NURSE: Terrible is the temperament of royalty,
       Who are rarely controlled, always imperious;
       It is hard for them to give up their wrath.
       To get used to living like everybody else
       Is better.
     
    [ΤΡΟΦΌΣ: δεινὰ τυράννων λήματα καί πως
       ὀλίγ᾽ ἀρχόμενοι, πολλὰ κρατοῦντες
       χαλεπῶς ὀργὰς μεταβάλλουσιν.
       τὸ γὰρ εἰθίσθαι ζῆν ἐπ᾽ ἴσοισιν
       κρεῖσσον.]

    Euripides (485?-406? BC) Greek tragic dramatist
    Medea [Μήδεια], l. 119ff (431 BC) [tr. Podlecki (1989)]

  12. A quotation from Horace

    Anger’s a short frenzy, curb thy Soul,
    And check thy rage, which must be rul’d or rule:
    Use all thy Art, with all thy force restrain,
    And take the strongest Bit, and firmest Rein.
     
    [Ira furor brevis est: animum rege; qui nisi paret
    imperat; hunc frenis, hunc tu compesce catena.]

    Horace (65-8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
    Epistles [Epistularum, Letters], Book 1, ep. 2 “To Lollius,” l. 62ff (1.2.62) (20 BC) [tr. Creech (1684)]

  13. A quotation from Shakespeare

    KING RICHARD: Wrath-kindled gentlemen, be ruled by me.
       Let’s purge this choler without letting blood.
       This we prescribe, though no physician.
       Deep malice makes too deep incision.
       Forget, forgive; conclude and be agreed.
       Our doctors say this is no month to bleed.

    William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist and poet
    Richard II, Act 1, sc. 1, l. 156ff (1.1.56) (1595)

  18. #November 28, 1757
    #OTD William Blake, #English #Poet, born.

    The #Poison #Tree is about repressed #Anger & how anger can be #Cultivated.

    I was #Angry with my #Foe;
    I told it #Not, my #Wrath did #Grow.
    And I watered it in #Fears,
    Night & Morning with my #Tears.

    And it #Grew both Day & Night,
    Till it bore an #Apple bright;
    & my #Foe beheld it #Shine,
    & he knew that it was #Mine,

    In the morning glad I see
    My Foe outstretched beneath the Tree.
