Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “When we hear the other person’s feelings and needs, we recognize our common humanity.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “All criticism, attack, insults, and judgments vanish when we focus attention on hearing the feelings and needs behind a message. The more we practice in this way, the more we realize a simple truth: behind all those messages we’ve allowed ourselves to be intimidated by are just individuals with unmet needs appealing to us to contribute to their well-being.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “We recognize that real educational reform is essential if today’s and tomorrow’s children are to live in a more peaceful, just, and sustainable world.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “My need is for safety, fun and to have distribution of resources, a sustainable life on the planet. NVC is a strategy that serves me to meet these needs.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “If we want to make meetings productive, we need to keep track of those whose requests are on the table.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “We only feel dehumanized when we get trapped in the derogatory images of other people or thoughts of wrongness about ourselves. As author and mythologist Joseph Campbell suggested, “‘What will they think of me?’ must be put aside for bliss.” We begin to feel this bliss when messages previously experienced as critical or blaming begin to be seen for the gifts they are: opportunities to give to people who are in pain.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Before we tackle the gangs and the basic story, we have to make sure that we have liberated ourselves from how we have been educated and make sure we are coming from a spirituality of our own choosing.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “As NVC replaces our old patterns of defending, withdrawing or attacking in the face of judgment and criticism. We come to perceive ourselves and others, as well as our intentions and relationships, in a new light. Resistance, defensiveness, and violent reactions are minimized.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “The spirituality that we need to develop for social change is one that mobilizes us for social change.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Tragically, one of the rarest commodities in our culture is empathy. People are hungry for empathy, They don’t know how to ask for it.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us, it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “You can’t make your kids do anything. All you can do is make them wish they had. And then, they will make you wish you hadn’t made them wish they had.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Whether I praise or criticize someone’s action, I imply that I am their judge, that I’m engaged in rating them or what they have done.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “NVC can be effectively applied at all levels of communication and in diverse situations: intimate relationships, families, schools, organizations and institutions, therapy and counseling, diplomatic and business negotiations, disputes and conflicts of any nature.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “The number one rule of our training is empathy before education.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “NVC gives us tools and understanding to create a more peaceful state of mind.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Empathy: Emptying our mind and listening with our whole being.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “We use NVC to evaluate ourselves in ways that engender growth rather than self-hatred.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “The more we use words that in any way imply criticism, the more difficult it is for people to stay connected to the beauty within themselves.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “When I recognize I’ve got anger, then I realize it’s because I have a need that’s not being met.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “What bores the listener bores the speaker too.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “NVC heightens our awareness that what others say and do may be the stimulus, but never the cause, of our feelings. We see that our feelings result from how we choose to receive what others say and do, as well as from our particular needs and expectations in that moment. With this third component, we are led to accept responsibility for what we do to generate our own feelings.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “For centuries, the image of the loving woman has been associated with sacrifice and the denial of one’s own needs to take care of others. Because women are socialized to view the caretaking of others as their highest duty, they often learn to ignore their own needs.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “The best way I can get understanding from another person is to give this person the understanding, too. If I want them to hear my needs and feelings, I first need to empathize.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “The number one reason that we don’t get our needs met, we don’t express them. We express judgments. If we do express needs, the number two reasons we don’t our needs met, we don’t make clear requests.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Not getting our needs fulfilled is painful – but it’s a sweet pain, not suffering, which is what comes from life-alienated thinking and interpretation.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Social change involves helping people see new options for making life wonderful that are less costly to get needs met.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “We can never make anyone do anything against their will without enormous consequences.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Never give advice to your children unless you have it in writing and notarized.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “People do not hear our pain when they believe they are at fault.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Compliments and praise, for their part, are tragic expressions of fulfilled needs.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Miracles can happen when we can keep our consciousness away from analyzing and classifying one another.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “The more we empathize with the other party, the safer we feel.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “With empathy we don’t direct, we follow. Don’t just do something, be there.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “As long as I think I ‘should’ do it, I’ll resist it, even if I want very much to do it.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Any time you throw pain at a Jackal without a clear present request, within a millisecond he’ll jump in.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “When we are angry, killing people is too superficial.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Needs are never conflicting. When we say that, we are only saying that at the moment we aren’t seeing how both needs can be met. That leaves an opening. When you think in the way I’m suggesting, you’ll often find a way to get most needs met simultaneously.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “My theory is that we get depressed because we’re not getting what we want, and we’re not getting what we want because we have never been taught to get what we want. Instead, we’ve been taught to be good little boys and girls and good mothers and fathers. If we’re going to be one of those good things, better get used to being depressed. Depression is the reward we get for being “good.” But, if you want to feel better, I’d like you to clarify what you would like people to do to make life more wonderful for you.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Plans to exact retribution are never going to make us safer.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “NVC is a reminder; to focus our attention where we are most likely to get our needs met.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Upset? Ask yourself what this person does that is a trigger for judging them?”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “In a Giraffe institution, the head nurse job would be to serve the nurses, not to control them. Teachers are there to serve the students, not control them.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “My anger tells me firstly that there’s a need of mine that’s not getting met.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “As radical as it may seem, it is possible to do things only out of play. I believe that to the degree that we engage moment by moment in the playfulness of enriching life- motivated solely by the desire for its enrichment- to that degree are we being compassionate with ourselves.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “MBR: First, I’d like to know what I said or did that made life more wonderful for you.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “When we have our consciousness on needs, images come to us, naturally, of how to meet those needs.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “Be very slow to go into looking for solutions.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “The ability to offer empathy to people in stressful situations can defuse potential violence.”
Marshall B. Rosenberg Quote: “There is a story of a man on all fours under a street lamp, searching for something. A policeman passing by asked what he was doing. “Looking for my car keys,” replied the man, who appeared slightly drunk. “Did you drop them here?” inquired the officer. “No,” answered the man, “I dropped them in the alley.” Seeing the policeman’s baffled expression, the man hastened to explain, “But the light is much better here.”
