Quote by Louis L'Amour

Anger is a killing thing: it kills the man who angers, for each rage leaves him less than he had been before - it takes something from him.

Summary

This quote emphasizes the destructive nature of anger. It suggests that anger not only harms others but also takes a toll on the person experiencing it. Each outburst of rage diminishes one's sanity, peace of mind, and overall well-being. Anger erodes the very essence of an individual, chipping away at their character and robbing them of their former self. In other words, anger is a deeply detrimental emotion that inflicts significant damage on both the individual harboring it and those around them.

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important too

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life.Almost everything--all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure--these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet, death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it, and that is how it should be, because death is very likely the single best invention of life. It's life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new.
