About This Quote
There are as many kinds of anger as there are of the sunsets which should end them. There is a joke floating around about how there are as many different types of people in the world as there are kinds of sunsets. Well, the joke is actually based on a true saying that was said by William Shakespeare. He said, “There is a kind of rage that ends in something.” This expression means that we should not worry too much about what we think or feel inside ourselves if we do not know what happens when we get angry and throw a fit.
