If there was one thing I knew, it was that our demons were what shaped who we were. The things we do, the way we act, are all driven by the things we want locked away forever.

About This Quote

The way someone acts is a reflection of the things inside them. When someone acts in a certain way, it is because they want to hide their feelings and secrets from the world. The one thing we all do is to hide our secrets and fears from other people. We don’t want to show the world that we are afraid or worried about something.

This quote encourages us to let our demons out and face them head on. Letting them out means we will not be hurting anyone else because we will not be hiding anymore.
