About This Quote
When someone is angry, all the anger inside of them leaks out. People who are angry aren't aware that they are angry because it leaks out, "from the heart 'til it reaches my outer me." The reason why people get angry is because their thoughts are filled with thoughts of bad things happening to them. These bad things include everything from losing a job to being abused in some way. They think these things so much that their emotions turn into anger.
That's why it's so important to be aware of your thoughts, so you can see when they turn into anger so you can stop the process. When you experience anger it can come out in different ways. For example, people might yell when they are angry or blow up in the face when they are upset.
It doesn't matter how it comes out or happens. What matters is that when someone is angry they need to be aware of what they are feeling and that is what Nelson Mandela explains in this quote.
