Quotes About Anger

Zar loš na?in života ne bi svakog u?inio zlo?estim? Dobro se sije?am kako me je jednog dana u Yorodiu jedan dje?ak gurnuo u grm prepun trnja, uhvatio me takav bijes da bih bila u stanju gristi. Ako me nekoliko minuta bola moglo dovesti do takvog bijesa, što bih tek u?inile godinje patnje? ?ak se i kamen može udubiti ako ga dovoljno dugo udaraju kapi kiše.

What is needful is that he should make haste to get out of them; and here, again, it does not matter how.

~ Arundhati Roy
They wore their anguish like armour, their anger slung across their bodies like ammunition belts. At that moment, perhaps because they were this armed, or because they had decided to embrace a life of death, or because they knew they were already dead, they became invincible.
~ Arundhati Roy
I feel a rush of anger at those grumbling intellectuals and professional dissenters who constantly carp about this great country. Frankly, they can only do it because they are allowed to. And they are allowed to because, for all our imperfections, we are a genuine democracy.
~ Arundhati Roy
When his bouts of violence began to include the
~ Arundhati Roy
Blue-lipped and dinner-plate-eyed, they watched, mesmerized by something that they sensed but didn't understand: the absence of caprice in what the policemen did. The abyss where anger should have been. The sober, steady brutality, the economy of it all.
~ Arundhati Roy

~ Atul Gawande
It is impossible to be angry for very long with a man who wears a wig.
~ Auberon Waugh
I know the anger lies inside of me like I know the beat of my heart and the taste of my spit. It is easier to be furious than to be yearning. Easier to crucify myself in you than to take on the threatening universe of whiteness by admitting that we are worth wanting each other.
~ Audre Lorde
I cannot hide my anger to spare you guilt, nor hurt feelings, nor answering anger; for to do so insults and trivializes all our efforts. Guilt is not a response to anger; it is a response to one's own actions or lack of action. If it leads to change then it can be useful, since it is then no longer guilt but the beginning of knowledge.
~ Audre Lorde
what you hear in my voice is fury, not suffering. Anger, not moral authority
~ Audre Lorde
I lost my sister, Gennie, to my silence and her pain and despair, to both our angers and to a world's cruelty that destroys its own young in passing - not even as a rebel gesture or sacrifice or hope for another living of the spirit, but out of not noticing or caring about the destruction. I have never been able to blind myself to that cruelty, which according to one popular definition of mental health, makes me mentally unhealthy.
