| Reference: Greek Reference information: It seems to originate from Aristotle, so maybe Ancient Greek would be more appropriate. http://www.proz.com/kudoz/english_to_latin/art_literary/2733... http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080330120722AA... "The person who gets angry at the right things and with the right people, and in the right way and at the right time and for the right length of time, is commended." - Aristotle’s Philosophy of Anger http://www.immanuelonline.net/uploads/filemanager/documents/... I always thought it was a deadly sin. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 hrs (2011-09-01 11:38:02 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy_Fuller]Roy Fuller[/url] wrote (may be a slight paraphrase – quoting from memory having read it nearly forty years ago) "there's nothing wrong with hate as long as it is properly/correctly directed". I think it occurs in "The Carnal Island" during a dinner conversation, otherwise it's in "The Perfect Fool". I know hate is different to anger and there's probably many theses on the difference, but I wonder if this Fuller quote is not something close or at least parallel to what Aristotle was trying to say. |
