Quotes by John Townsend (?)

“Emotions, or feelings, have a function. They tell us something. They are a signal....Anger tells us that our boundaries have been violated. Much like a nation's radar defense system, angry feelings serve as an "early warning system" telling us we're in danger of being injured or controlled.”
― Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend

“And healthy people love honesty. Normalizing truthfulness in your relationships is simply inserting your own realities into the conversation, the meeting, or the event.”
― John Townsend, Beyond Boundaries: Learning to Trust Again in Relationships

“Healthy intimate relationships involve a dedication of one’s self to the betterment of the other. You need someone who will count the cost of having an attachment to you and who is willing to then make a real commitment.”
― John Townsend, Beyond Boundaries: Learning to Trust Again in Relationships
