Text Quotes
I’m very blessed that I have a healthy temper. I can become quite angry and burning in anger, but I have never been bitter. Bitterness is a corrosive, terrible acid. It just eats you and makes you sick (Temper Quotes)
If you work with your mind, instead of trying to change everything on the outside... that’s how your temper will cool down (Temper Quotes)
A man who cannot command his temper should not think of being a man in business (Temper Quotes)
I recognize a lot of the things I’m going through. Like, I lose my temper a lot and I become unhinged and kind of hysterical (Temper Quotes)
The aim of life is some way of living, as flexible and gentle as human nature; so that ambition may stoop to kindness, and philosophy to condor and humor. Neither prosperity nor empire nor heaven can be worth winning at the price of a virulent temper, bloody hands, an anguished spirit, and a vain hatred of the rest of the world (Temper Quotes)
Women are told from their infancy, and taught by the example of their mothers, that a little knowledge of human weakness, justly termed cunning, softness of temper, outward obedience and a scrupulous attention to a puerile kind of propriety, will obtain for them the protection of man (Temper Quotes)
No man who is resolved to make the most of himself can spare time for personal contention, still less can he afford to take the consequences, including the vitiation of his temper and the loss of self control, yield to larger things to which you show no more than equal rights, and yield to lesser ones though clearly your own, better give your path to a dog, than be bitten by him in contesting for the right, not even killing the dog, will cure the bite (Temper Quotes)
It seemed an advantage to be traveling alone. Our responses to the world are crucially moulded by the company we keep, for we temper our curiosity to fit in with the expectations of others... Being closely observed by a companion can also inhibit our observation of others; then, too, we may become caught up in adjusting ourselves to the companion’s questions and remarks, or feel the need to make ourselves seem more normal than is good for our curiosity (Temper Quotes)
He always apologized, and sometimes he would even cry because of the bruises he’d made on her arms or legs or her back. He would say that he hated what he’d done, but in the next breath tell her she’d deserved it. That if she’d been more careful, it wouldn’t have happened. That if she’d been paying attention or hadn’t been so stupid, he wouldn’t have lost his temper (Temper Quotes)
There is no reason in the world why you should not be important where you are known. You have good sense, and a sweet temper, and I am sure you have a grateful heart, that could never receive kindness without hoping to return it. I do not know any better qualifications for a friend and companion (Temper Quotes)
To give freedom is still more easy. It is not necessary to guide; it only requires to let go the rein. But to form a free government; that is, to temper together these opposite elements of liberty and restraint in one work, requires much thought, deep reflection, a sagacious, powerful, and combining mind (Temper Quotes)
Let somebody insult you and see that that you do not answer back. Just see it, not to get into temper. Try that your ego doesn’t react. That can be achieved very easily if you try in the mirror, look at yourself and laugh at yourself, make fun of yourself (Temper Quotes)
For though a man should be a complete unbeliever in the being of gods; if he also has a native uprightness of temper, such persons will detest evil in men; their repugnance to wrong disinclines them to commit wrongful acts; they shun the unrighteous and are drawn to the upright (Temper Quotes)
Being thus prepared for us in all ways, and made beautiful, and good for food, and for building, and for instruments of our hands, this race of plants, deserving boundless affection and admiration from us, becomes, in proportion to their obtaining it, a nearly perfect test of our being in right temper of mind and way of life; so that no one can be far wrong in either who loves trees enough, and everyone is assuredly wrong in both who does not love them, if his life has brought them in his way (Temper Quotes)
Something of the hermit’s temper is an essential element in many forms of excellence, since it enables men to resist the lure of popularity, to pursue important work in spite of general indifference or hostility, and arrive at opinions which are opposed to prevalent errors (Temper Quotes)
As it turns out, as an adult I can have a very unpleasant, fierce and unforgiving temper at times. But I don’t think I had that when I was a kid (Temper Quotes)
A spirit of innovation is generally the result of a selfish temper and confined views. People will not look forward to posterity, who never look backward to their ancestors (Temper Quotes)
Do not repeat slander; you should not hear it, for it is the result of hot temper (Temper Quotes)
Bad temper is its own scourge. Few things are more bitter than to feel bitter. A man’s venom poisons himself more than his victim (Temper Quotes)
A misery is not to be measured from the nature of the evil, but from the temper of the sufferer (Temper Quotes)
How true it is that arguments have only power over us while the temper is disposed to listen to them! (Temper Quotes)
Inferiority is always with us, and merciless scorn of it is the keynote of the military temper (Temper Quotes)
My uncertain temper is cooling, as is my sense of racing against time to accomplish the things I want to. I don’t have to go anywhere or see anyone I don’t want to now, and it is a glorious feeling! (Temper Quotes)
If you wish to obtain a great name or to found an establishment, be completely mad; but be sure that your madness corresponds with the turn and temper of your age (Temper Quotes)
If the cut of the costume indicates intellect and talent, then the color indicates temper and heart (Temper Quotes)
Ask yourself how many shots you would have saved if you never lost your temper, never got down on yourself, always developed a strategy before you hit, and always played within your own capabilities (Temper Quotes)

No better cosmetics than a severe temperance and purity, modesty and humility, a gracious temper and calmness of spirit; no true beauty without the signature of these graces in the very countenance (Temper Quotes)
Goodness is generous and diffusive; it is largeness of mind, and sweetness of temper, balsam in the blood, and justice sublimated to a richer spirit (Temper Quotes)
