It's an honest question, isn't it? Roland studies the face in front of him, trying to decide. He thinks it is. That deserves more than a quick, offhand answer, so Roland speaks a little more slowly, thinking it through as he talks.

"It takes time. Practice. Keeping a part of your mind separate, to rein yourself in if you're going too far. Keep that part of you that knows anger always has a cost. Then, once you let your anger free, you'll know when it's been loosed on the right target. But in the short term... I've seen men do all sorts of things to distract themselves from anger. Playing cards with themselves, sex, even singing." He shrugs. "Anywhere you can place all your focus."
