If instead you are able to greet anger with love—a response that often requires tremendous discipline, practice, and inner strength— you'll be amazed at the positive results you reap. In the best-case scenario, your love will help to dissolve your “opponent's” aggression, just as a parent's firm calmness with a child can help to dispel a tantrum. Even if your opponent continues behaving with anger and resentment, you will walk away from the situation feeling better about yourself. —Henry Emmons
