It's the ancient instinct: In times of great danger, be wary of strangers. Trust no one outside your circle. But there's another instinct, far older, as old as life itself, nearly impossible for the human mind to override: Protect the young at all costs. Preserve the future." - Vosch

About This Quote

The fact that some people are born to lead others astray is a strange concept. When you hear of dangerous happenings in the world, you may think of mass murders or wars, but there are more dangerous things happening underneath the surface of life. People are born to lead others astray, but they are also born to be leaders of the people. The idea of leaders of the people is an idea that has been running through human society since human beings first started living on this planet. It’s something that people will fight for and die for because it’s hard to imagine anything more important than leading other people by example.
