RE: The Stoics on Anger

Lots of great quotes in this review - thank you - I really need to read Seneca. In college I was too young to appreciate most of the great wisdom I read. (Yes, "youth is wasted on the young," as they say.)

All this wisdom that's been around for centuries, yet we still keep learning the hard way.

The greatest remedy that Seneca encourages for anger is delay, or time. No matter which way we choose to use time -- meditating, venting to someone, punching a bag -- the objective is to redirect anger so that it does not manifest.
Keep in mind that anger causes the most destruction and grief; is a minor trifle truly worth the damage?
