A Conversation
She said to me: You are very angry. I said to her: I am very happy despite my shame at being human. And I think it is better to be angry and eristic than smug or (worse still) optimistic.
A woman of my acquaintance who is a brainwashed worker in the Care Industry (i.e. a nurse) - the sort of sub-Christian person who sees anger as merely negative, and people like me as stroppy and possibly destructive because I am not 'constructive' (i.e. building whole edifices on wobbly 'humanist' concepts such as All Human Life is Worth Saving At All Times.

(sorry about the long sentence!)
I think that the saying Whatever floats your boat is applicable here.
