Good works gathered in a thousand ages,
Such as deeds of generosity,
Or offerings to the blissful ones-
A single flash of anger shatters them.
No evil is there similar to anger,
No austerity to be compared with patience.
-Shantideva
I can't say I know many people who wouldn't gain from knowing this... (with specific emphasis on myself!)
Uh huh.
