About This Quote
The author of this quote is not talking about the physical body, but it could be referring to the animalistic part of you. It’s the part of you that loves violence. It’s the part of you that craves destruction. The animalistic part of us is the part which is happiest when we are in conflict with our family, friends, and neighbors.
It’s the part of us which is most comfortable when we are in pain and misery. Your friend who tells you to stop crying, or your boss who says it’s OK that you missed work because you didn’t feel good; they are only bringing out the worst in us.
