“
To contain anger from mischief, though it take hold of a man, there be two things whereof you must have special caution: the one, of extreme bitterness of words, especially if they be aculeate and proper, for "communia maledicta" are nothing so much; and, again, that in anger a man reveal no secrets, for that makes him not fit for society: the other, that you do not peremptorily break off in any business in a fit of anger; but, howsoever you show bitterness, do not act anything that is not revocable. 去书内

    Hold the line in words to avoid hurting others or leaking secrets, and leave room for maneuver in actions to avoid impulsiveness—thus confining the destructive power of anger within a controllable range.
