Malefactors becoming your master


"Any person capable of angering you becomes your master;
he can anger you only when you permit yourself to be disturbed by him."
- Epictetus (55-135 AD)

"Like a city that is broken into and without walls
Is a man who has no control over his spirit."
Proverbs 25:28

God, let me always be in control of my mind and body.
Give me that I may not become annoyed by others,
and let me not anger by those who would want or provoke.
