Like
a forest fire, anger tends to burn up its own support. If we jump down
into the middle of such a fire, we will have little chance of putting it
out, but if we create a clearing around the edges, the fire can burn
itself out. This is the role of meditation: creating a clearing around
the margins of anger.
