As someone who has been angry for most of his life, I read this and recognize the truth in it. Thank you for sharing some wisdom with me. I've never seen this put into words, but damn... This has been one of my worst drawbacks when dealing with everyday folk.

Interesting.

Copy it on post-its and sprinkle them around until it's absorbed through osmosis.

Thanks for the feedback. Makes my efforts seem not so unnoticed nor in vain. I used to verify and post in /s/quotes but that was a timesuck. Many of his "quotes" were wrong or unverified.
