Summary

This quote emphasizes the close relationship between anger and danger by pointing out that they differ by just one letter. It suggests that anger can often lead to harmful or destructive actions if not properly managed. However, the quote also offers a solution by advocating for delay as the greatest remedy for anger. By taking a moment to pause and delay our immediate reaction, we can prevent ourselves from making impulsive and regrettable choices driven by anger. This supports the idea that practicing self-control and giving ourselves time to cool down can effectively diffuse anger's potentially dangerous consequences.
