"From anger comes delusion; from delusion, confusion of memory; from confusion of memory, ruin of intelligence; and from ruin of intelligence one perishes."
Modern explanation
When the day pushes against you, remember: Anger is expensive: it costs you clarity, then memory, then choice. Pay attention before it bills you.
Practical application
Lower your voice and slow your speech by half. Your nervous system will follow.
Reflection question
