(TKW 196): For Klingons, anger is definitely not a negative emotion. On the contrary, it can trigger acts of honor, energize battles, or prompt one to achieve one’s goals. It provides motivation for further action and, since taking action is central to a Klingons well-being, the overall effect is one of stimulation, elation, and excitement. One’s outrage should not lead to recklessness, however, for careless action will interfere with one’s ultimate success. SEE ALSO: nuQ annoy, bother (v) yIv bother (slang: lit.
