Marshall B Rosenberg Quotes

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 Picture Quote #1

I believe that the most joyful and intrinsic motivation human beings have for taking any action is the desire to meet our needs and the needs of others Picture Quote #1

Two things distinguish nonviolent actions from violent actions. First, you don’t see an enemy and second, your intention is not to make the other side suffer Picture Quote #1

I think that there is a problem with rewards and consequences because in the long run, they rarely work in the ways we hope. In fact, they are likely to backfire Picture Quote #1

Once you can clearly describe what you are reacting to, free of your interpretation or evaluation of it, other people are less likely to be defensive when they hear it Picture Quote #1

If we ask two questions, we will see that punishment never works. First: What do we want the other person to do? Second: What do we want the other person’s reasons to be for doing as we request? Picture Quote #1

Labeling and diagnosis is a catastrophic way to communicate. Telling other people what’s wrong with them greatly reduces, almost to zero, the probability that we’re going to get what we’re after Picture Quote #1

When we are in contact with our feelings and needs, we humans no longer make good slaves and underlings Picture Quote #1

If we want to be compassionate we must be conscious of the words we use. We must both speak and listen from the heart Picture Quote #1

You’ll find people less threatening if you hear what they’re needing rather than what they’re thinking about you Picture Quote #1

Anger tells us we’ve disconnected from life. The purpose in anger is to use it to come back to life Picture Quote #1

Most of us grew up speaking a language that encourages us to label, compare, demand, and pronounce judgments rather than to be aware of what we are feeling and needing Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

NVC enhances inner communication by helping us translate negative internal messages into feelings and needs. Our ability to distinguish our own feelings and needs and to empathize with them can free us from depression Picture Quote #1

Empathy is a respectful understanding of what others are experiencing. Instead of offering empathy, we often have a strong urge to give advice or reassurance and to explain our own position or feeling. Empathy, however, calls upon us to empty our mind and listen to others with our whole being Picture Quote #1

In nonviolent communication, no matter what words others may use to express themselves, we simply listen for their observations, feelings, needs, and requests. Then we may wish to reflect back, paraphrasing what we have understood. We stay with empathy, allowing others the opportunity to fully express themselves before we turn our attention to solutions or requests for relief Picture Quote #1

When you ride the wave, the thrill is so exhilarating that you forget everything else. You live in the moment where nothing else matters, so intent on riding the wave perfectly that you and the wave become one. Pain and worry disappear, replaced by euphoria, akin to flow. Similarly, when giving empathy, you want to strive for this kind of total presence for the person you are listening to Picture Quote #1

Keep in mind that other people’s actions can never ‘make’ you feel any certain way. Feelings are your warning indicators Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Praise and reward create a system of extrinsic motivations for behavior. Children (and adults) end up taking action in order to receive the praise or rewards Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Conventional compliments often take the form of judgments however positive, and are sometimes offered to manipulate the behavior of others. NVC encourages the expression of appreciation solely for celebration Picture Quote #1

Children need far more than basic skills in reading, writing, and math, as important as those might be. Children also need to learn how to think for themselves, how to find meaning in what they learn, and how to work and live together Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Public education for some time has been heavily focused on what curricula we believe will be helpful to students. Life-Enriching Education is based on the premise that the relationship between teachers and students, the relationships of students with one another, and the relationships of students to what they are learning are equally important in preparing students for the future Picture Quote #1

Imagine connecting with the human spirit in each person in any situation at any time. Imagine interacting with others in a way that allows everyone’s need to be equally valued. Imagine creating organizations and life-serving systems responsive to our needs and the needs of our environment Picture Quote #1

When it comes to giving advice, never do so unless you’ve first received a request in writing, signed by a lawyer Picture Quote #1

Anger, depression, guilt, and shame are the product of the thinking that is at the base of violence on our planet Picture Quote #1

Power-Over leads to punishment and violence. Power-With leads to compassion and understanding, and to learning motivated by reverence for life rather than fear, guilt, shame, or anger Picture Quote #1

It’s never what people do that makes us angry; it’s what we tell ourselves about what they did Picture Quote #1
