I like the quote. It rings true. I think anger works that way with fear, too.

Anger (and aggression) have been tied to frustration (usually of needs at some level) and so to some sort of hurt or loss. I used to have lots of outrage, righteous anger, and it took me forever to learn that this was the bodyguard for the injured parts of me that now needed to be soothed not fought for.
