Top 5 quotes from Aristotle
"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it."
"Humor is the only test of gravity, and gravity of humor; for a subject which will not bear raillery is suspicious, and a jest which will not bear serious examination is false wit."
"A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, believing that he has the gods on his side."
"No great genius has ever existed without some touch of madness."
"Men create gods after their own image, not only with regard to their form but with regard to their mode of life."
Top 5 quotes from Anger
"I conquered my hostility by putting it away until the day I might need it."
"Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned."
"Anybody can become angry - that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way - that is not within everybody's power and is not easy."
"In a controversy the instant we feel anger we have already ceased striving for the truth, and have begun striving for ourselves."
"The degree of one's emotions varies inversely with one's knowledge of the facts: the less you know the hotter you get."
