Franny Billingsley
“You could at least complain,” I say. “I adore complaining. It calms the nerves.”
Franny Billingsley, Chime

Sigmund Freud
“Neurotics complain of their illness, but they make the most of it, and when it comes to taking it away from them they will defend it like a lioness her young.”
Sigmund Freud

“What's the use of complaining about something you have no intentions of changing it?”
Mario L Castellanos

Eckhart Tolle
“See if you can catch yourself complaining, in either speech or thought, about a situation you find yourself in, what other people do or say, your surroundings, your life situation, even the weather. To complain is always nonacceptance of what is. It invariably carries an unconscious negative charge. When you complain, you make yourself into a victim. When you speak out, you are in your power. So change the situation by taking action or by speaking out if necessary or possible; leave the situation or accept it. All else is madness.”
Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment

Lisa Kleypas
“A good conversation always involves a certain amount of complaining. I like to bond over mutual hatreds and petty grievances.”
Lisa Kleypas, Christmas Eve at Friday Harbor
