Imbalanced Quotes

“Her loyalty was absurd. This was what kept us going.”
― Ottessa Moshfegh, My Year of Rest and Relaxation

“YOUR GREATER ANIMAL


They say that if you are
Ever confronted by
A lion or bear,
To never act scared.
Instead act like
You are the greater animal
And that they're
The hare
That you are about
To tear.
This has been
Proven
And compared.
This is how presidents
Are loved
And feared.
Each one of us has an animal
Within us
That is armed with
Mental,
Physical or
Spiritual gifts
That could shoot spears
Through the air.

So next time
You are confronted in
A fight that seems unfair,
Just remember the lion and the bear.
MAGNIFY
Your greater animal
And all that feel your magnificence
Will quickly step away
And disappear.”
― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem
