Sometimes they're always angry, they just don't have a target they can feel justified taking it out on.

See to it that you don't provide them with a target.

Angel actually it is "Beware of the fury of a patient man." I am a student of John Dryden...

William Faulkner, I believe, noted that a mule will wait it's entire lifetime to kick you good, just once, out of spite.
