- Fr. Richard Rohr
And in response, I had stored up reserves of I'll show you anger. That's a particular kind of anger. When you feel like someone wouldn't let you be you, it strikes at the core of who you are. And that sacred wound can animate all kinds of action. There's a ton of activating energy there.
