I saw it posted anonymously in some newsletter.  I just did a search on
google.com, and found it attributed to Malachy McCourt, on a page of
quotations about anger:

and in several other places.  Here's some other goodies (unattributed):

Be kind to your enemies, it will drive them crazy.
Expectations are premeditated resentments.
Resentment is like letting someone live rent-free in your head.
To be wronged is nothing unless you insist on remembering it.
