“Whatever you resist you become. If you resist anger, you are always angry. If you resist sadness, you are always sad. If you resist suffering, you are always suffering. If you resist confusion, you are always confused. We think that we resist certain states because they are there, but actually they are there because we resist them.”
~ Adyashanti

“There are many winds full of anger, and lust and greed. They move the rubbish around, but the solid mountain of our true nature stays where it’s always been.”
~ Rumi

“I found that love freed me back into the ocean of love and my righteous anger didn’t do that. And I would rather be free than right.”
~ Ram Dass

“There is no doubt that anger, lust, and greed are evils. Why, then, has God created them? In order to create saints. A man becomes a saint by conquering the senses. Is there anything impossible for a man who has subdued his passions?”
~ Ramakrishna

“Unless you really awaken you can never make this world a better place in which to live. Why? Due to the fact that you are the universe right now, just the way you are! Therefore, if you are filled with anger, animosity, greed, avarice, and the rest of those things, so is the world! You have created the world. The world is an emanation of your own mind. What you think of yourself you think of the world. If you are filled with fear then world frightens you. If you are filled with greed you believe everyone else is greedy. The world is a reflection of you, that’s all it is.”
~ Robert Adams

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”
~ 1 Corinthians 13 4-7
