ORIGIN

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the oldest sense of the English word rage as used in the 13th century was “madness; insanity; a fit or access of mania, and this is still a common today.

But the special idiomatic use of rage in the sense of “a strong passion for, desire of, a thing” was already used by Shakespeare, in it oldest quotation in 1593: "This moves in him more rage…To make the breach."
