— Ambrose Bierce

Simplified Meaning:
When you talk while you’re angry, you often say things you don’t really mean and later wish you had kept quiet. Imagine you're upset because your friend forgot your birthday. If you immediately tell them off, you might end up saying hurtful things like, "You never care about me!" This outburst can damage your friendship, even if you didn't truly mean those harsh words. It's better to wait until you calm down and then express your feelings calmly. By doing this, you’re less likely to say something you’ll feel sorry for later. So, it's wise to take a moment, breathe, and think before speaking in anger. This way, you avoid regret and maintain better relationships.
