Violent Man Quotes Quotes

“A person consumed by arrogance, violence, and aggression, who lashes out like a wild animal at the slightest provocation, is a vessel for
darkness, spreading toxicity and
chaos wherever they go. Their
addiction to harmful habits and
behaviors only strengthens the
grip of the enemy, making
them a dangerous influence on
those around them, and a total reminder of the destructive power of unchecked evil.”
― Shaila Touchton

“[t]he art of talking comes easier to some of us but others. For boys and men, so many of them still socialised in a myriad of destructive ways to hide weakness and took out their difficulties, the idea of sharing deep emotional pain with anyone is often unthinkable, even in the 21st century. When you are punished or mocked if you dare to express, or even have, feelings, you typically put a lot of effort into appearing strong and stoic. Except for anger. Male conditioning is much more accepting of anger, and emotion that is more about 'doing' that 'feeling'. Men are, generally speaking, more likely to deal with distress by doing something: overworking, sex, drinking, drugs, aggression, violence, suicide. What is suicide if not the most decisive of actions, after al. Small wonder then that the ultra-macho prison environment, where having emotions is seen as a sign of weakness, is full of men acting out their distress in harmful ways.”
