"La colère est un acide qui peut faire plus de mal au récipient dans lequel elle est stockée qu'à n'importe quoi sur lequel elle est versée"
— Mark Twain

Simplified Meaning:
When you hold onto anger, it can hurt you more than the person or thing you're mad at. Think of anger like a strong acid kept in a bottle – over time, the acid damages the bottle itself. Similarly, if you're always angry, it can affect your health, relationships, and overall happiness. For example, if you get mad at a friend and stay upset for weeks, you might lose sleep, feel stressed, and even ruin your friendship. Instead of helping you solve the problem, your anger just ends up hurting you more. To lead a happier life, it's better to find ways to let go of anger and address issues calmly.
