34. On the contrary

"He that is angry without cause, shall be in danger; but he that is angry with cause, shall not be in danger: for without anger, teaching will be useless, judgments unstable, crimes unchecked." Therefore to be angry is not always an evil.

I answer that, properly speaking anger is a passion of the sensitive appetite, and gives its name to the irascible power, as stated above. If one is angry in accordance with right reason, one's anger is deserving of praise.
