Creativity is the connection of ideas, but more importantly, it's the conflict of ideas. Anger can help us clarify this conflict.

But without action, angry ideas remain frustrated reactions.
Counter:
"It's rare to find a consistently creative or insightful person who is also an angry person. They can't occupy the same space, and if your anger moves in, generosity and creativity often move out. It's difficult to use revenge or animus to fuel great work." -Seth Godin
