About This Quote
This quote by Samuel Clemens is a bit harsh and offensive. However, it does speak to the truth that people often fail to see. The world is filled with people who don’t think for themselves and do what they want without having any regard for others. People who simply exist and submit to the desires of others.
Their lives are full of restrictions and regulations. Their minds are filled with thoughts that they were not meant to think or say. They do not respect themselves or their God-given bodies, but only bow before the desires and demands of others.
We all know someone like this. They may be your child, your friend, or even your family member. They may seem like a nice person, but underneath it all, they are not happy.
They do not feel like they belong — they feel like their body is no good and they should be something else.
