Only exceptions I can think of are physical self defense and when it comes in a rush of outrage, especially when you're young, and learning what you find really reprehensible - if you learn how NOT to hang onto it. For example, I recall reading about the rape of a 13 year old girl by soldiers in Vietnam when I was a 13 year old boy and felt real outrage - was my first awareness of rape. “Anger only harms and never helps” is overwhelmingly true.

Another quote I like comes from a book on mental golf called "Every shot must have a purpose" by Pia Nillson. She says "anger makes you stupid", and she's absolutely right. Whenever you become angry your higher brain functions are effectively cut off and you only act upon your more primitive lower brain functioning. A red mist does indeed come down and cloud your vision. The key is in learning to either stop the anger before it takes a hold, or in knowing to take a deep breath and relax, thereby allowing your logical brain functions to re-engage.

I especially like your quote from Siddhartha, and the note you make about the literal connection between anger and danger. Great post about managing anger.

I especially like your quote from Siddhartha, and the note you make about the literal connection between anger and danger. They are so closely tied to one another. I will say that, if the anger is potent enough, it can get out of control and not only hurt yourself but those around you, even the ones closest to you (sometimes, those are the persons who make us angry).
