愤怒
Anger

我的愤怒对我来说意味着痛苦,但它也意味着生存,在我放弃它之前,我要确定,在通往清晰的道路上,至少有一样强大的东西可以取代它。

I don't get angry very often. I lose my temper rarely. And when I do, there's always a legitimate cause. Normally I have a great lightness of being. I take things in a very happy, amused way.

I used to be funny, and perhaps I'm not anymore. It may be that I have become rather grumpy because I've seen so many things that have offended me that I cannot deal with in terms of laughter.
