6 _гнів і м'якість
anger and haste hinder good counsel anger begins with folly and ends with repentance anger dies quickly in a good man anger is a short madness an angry man opens his mouth and shuts his eyes be master of your anger beware the fury of a patient man even a rat, when cornered, will turn and fight he is a fool who cannot be angry but a wise man who will not hell hath no fury like a woman scorned a little pot is soon hot meekness is not weakness never let the Sun go down on your anger nothing can bring you peace but yourself a snappish dog usually has torn ears soft and fair goes far a soft answer turneth away wrath soon hot, soon cold there is no fury like a woman's fury to be angry is to punish yourself for another's sins two things a man should never be angry at: what he can help and what he cannot help whatever is begun in anger ends in shame the wrath of brothers is the wrath of devils -
