When I Dare to Be Powerful by Audre Lorde

5.0

And true, sometimes it seems that anger alone keeps me alive; it burns with a bright and undimin. ished flame. Yet anger, like guilt, is an incomplete form of human knowledge. More useful than hat red, but still limited. Anger is useful to help clarify our differences, but in the long run, strength that is bred by anger alone is a blind force which cannot create the future. It can only demolish the past. Such strength does not focus upon what lies ahead, but upon what lies behind, upon what created it - hatred. And hatred is a deathwish for the hated, not a lifewish for anything else.
