"I always tumble into trouble when I lose my temper".
-Robin Hood and His Merry Men retold by Jane Louise Curry illustrated by John Lytle.
"Funny thing about temper-if it's such a bad thing, shouldn't we want to lose it? Let the darn thing go! Good riddance! Not really. Because your temper, you see, is just that-your temper-meaning your stuck with it. If you let it loose, it's only going to circle around like a boomerang and come back and bite you in the butt".
A Quote from Eileen & Jerry Spinelli's book Today I Will: A Year of Quotes, Notes, and Promises to Myself.
