Marshall Rosenberg

"At the core of all anger is a need that is not being fulfilled."

- Marshall Rosenberg

"Every criticism, judgment, diagnosis, and expression of anger is the tragic expression of an unmet need."

- Marshall Rosenberg

"express anger requires full consciousness of our need […] Anger, however, co-opts our energy by directing it toward punishing people rather than meeting our needs. Instead of engaging in “righteous indignation,” I recommend connecting empathically with our own needs or those of others."

- Marshall Rosenberg
