AC 357
Anger is the general emotion
that results from anything
which gets in the way of self-love and its desires.
In the world of evil spirits this is perceived plainly.
Indeed general anger against the Lord prevails,
because they are not moved at all by charity,
but only by hatred.
Anything that is unfavorable
to self-love and the love of the world arouses opposition,
which manifests itself in anger.
AC 364
. . . the only means of driving away
the devil and his crew
from the door of the mind,
is love to the Lord and toward the neighbor.
