My father . . . used to say, "I need my anger. It obliges me to take action." I think my father was partly right. Anger arises, naturally, to signal disturbing situations that might require action. But actions initiated in anger perpetuate suffering. The most effective actions are those conceived in the wisdom of clarity. —Sylvia Boorstein More about this quote Tags: action wisdom suffering anger clarity Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email
