THE DEVIL'S COCAINE

Here's a short and pointed quote from an author I enjoy, Andrew Klavan:

"Anger is the Devil's cocaine."

In other words, it's addictive. People can't get enough. And they need bigger and bigger "hits" each time to get the same high.

I want to add "self-righteousness" to Klavan's "anger". I think they go hand in hand. Perhaps they are ultimately the same thing.

And anger and self-righteousness are a big part of what is tearing our society apart right now. And the Devil is the dealer.
