Anger Quote by Robert Karen
““Resentments - a petty one, but most resentments are. And one for its smallness I felt obliged to repress. For that matter, that is the nature of resentment, the objection we cannot repress. It is silence more than the complaint itself that makes the emotion so toxic, like poisons the body wont pee away””
