More From Robert Green Ingersoll

Argument cannot be answered with insults. kindness is strength; anger blows out the lamp of the mind.
Kindness Blow Mind
Confronting our feelings and giving them appropriate expression always takes strength, not weakness. it takes strength to acknowledge our anger, and sometimes more strength yet to curb the aggressive urges anger may bring and to channel them into nonviolent outlets. it takes strength to face our sadness and to grieve and to let our grief and our anger flow in tears when they need to. it takes strength to talk about our feelings and to reach out for help and comfort when we need it.
Grief Sadness Grieving
When we speak of a calm state of mind or peace of mind, we shouldn't confuse that with an insensitive state of apathy. having a calm or peaceful state of mind doesn't mean being spaced out or completely empty. peace of mind or a calm state of mind is rooted in affection and compassion and is sensitive and responsive to others.

Love is eternal -- the aspect may change, but not the essence. there is the same difference in a person before and after he is in love as there is in an unlighted lamp and one that is burning. the lamp was there and was a good lamp, but now it is shedding light too, and that is its real function. and love makes one calmer about many things, and that way, one is more fit for one's work.

The calm. if there is god or something higher for me it is this. the calm. if there is something that will hold me when i need to hold it is this the calm. there is no anger, no rage, no fury. there is no want, no need, no desire. there is no hatred no shame no regret. there is no grief, no sadness, no depression. there is no fear. absolutely no fear. when one lives without fear, one cannot be broken. when one lives with fear one is broken before one begins to live.
Regret Grief Sadness
Anger cannot be overcome by anger. if someone is angry with you, and you show anger in return, the result is a disaster. on the other hand, if you control your anger and show its opposite - love, compassion, tolerance and patience - not only will you remain peaceful, but the other person's anger will also diminish.
