Kelvin Fletcher Quotes

I do have anger management issues. Not clinical. Probably no more than most people.

Some people can vent their anger, take a breath, and let it go, but I wasn't one of them.

I like being angry every day.

Sometimes we get very frustrated here on court. It is tough to control. It is a mistake.

I am a danger to myself if I get angry.

All through life I've harbored anger rather than expressed it at the moment.

I went through a period where I just wanted to punch everybody. Since then, I've had a lot of therapy and I've figured a lot of things out.

The Anger Management Tour was another beautiful thing. I loved that tour.

I still have a temper, I suppose.

I get angry about things, then go on and work.

Being irrational and out of control is what happens in real life. Not cautiously choreographing your anger or your emotions, losing yourself in them is what happens in real life.

I have to say that anger is the blanket that comes around me, and that blunts and blurs my sense of proportion.

Every now and then I get angry, but fortunately, when I do, it's like watching a little dog try to attack something - it's something I'm not very good at.

I find rage to be the scariest emotion as an actor, for me personally, to tap into. I don't like anger, and I don't like conflict particularly in my life. I like everybody to be nice and things to be easy.

That aggression came over time from dealing with stuff - 'Anger Management' really is what it's called. That project came out and I felt a weight lifted off my chest. I learned something about myself.

I was born with a terrible temper, but this is the way of expressing myself. I flare up, but it goes quickly, and I don't remember it long.

Mangling my racket and an odd swearword on the court is not something I am proud of and it shouldn't happen, but even my coaches have told me that it's sometimes better to let it all out, the anger inside you, because keeping it bottled would just eat you up in the long term.

I have sometimes wondered also whether in people like me who come to the boil fast (soupe au lait, the French call this trait, like a milk soup that boils over) the tantrum is not a built-in safety valve against madness or illness. ... The fierce tension in me, when it is properly channeled, creates the good tension for work. But when it becomes unbalanced I am destructive. How to isolate that good tension is my problem these days. Or, put in another way, how to turn the heat down fast enough so the soup won't boil over!
