Anger is one of the many emotions humans are endowed with. Being angry and red-faced in rage is not a wise thing to do. We all get angry, but you can always choose your reaction. Try to count 10 before you react or yell at someone. You can hurt people with your angry words, expressions, and actions.
So try to calm down and wait for your temper to cool down before taking decisions or reacting. We have compiled a collection of being angry quotes and sayings which will encourage you to cool down.
