He’s whittlin’ on a piece of wood. I’ve got a feeling when he stops whittlin’… Somethin’s gonna happen.  — Once Upon A Time In The West

“Sleep on it” is some of the best advice I’ve ever heard.  It’s always better to take a step back, take a deep breath, think for a while, then come to an important decision.  If you’re angry, take a breather before acting.  If you’re still angry after a few minutes or a few hours, then feel free to raise the black flag and take no prisoners.
