Quote by Benjamin Franklin

Anger is never without a reason but seldom a good one.

Anger is never without a reason but seldom a good one.

Summary

This quote suggests that anger always stems from a cause or trigger, which implies that there is a logical explanation for feeling angry. However, it also suggests that the reasons behind anger are often not valid or justified. In other words, while there may be underlying factors that lead to anger, they are typically not based on sound reasoning or worth becoming upset over. Thus, the quote warns against allowing anger to cloud judgment and encourages individuals to critically assess the legitimacy of their reasons for being angry.
