About This Quote
The idea that staying true to yourself and your ideals is the only way you can be happy is a very solid one. After all, who wants to be consumed by their own darkness? Instead, we want to be free of it. It’s like the shadow of death; you don’t want it following you around, but you also don’t want to let it go.
