I noticed him right away. No, it wasn’t his lean, rugged face. Or the dark waves of shiny hair that hung just a little too long on his forehead. It wasn’t the slim, collarless biker jacket he wore, hugging his lean shoulders. It was the way he stood. The confident way he waited in the cafeteria line to get a slice of pizza. He didn’t saunter. He didn’t amble. He stood at the center, and let the other people buzz around him. His stance was straight and sure. . Priya Ardis
About This Quote

It was a confident stance of body language that projected the image of a person who knew what he was doing, and knew what he wanted. He had no need to prove himself and no need to look like he wasn’t sure of himself. Instead, he had self-assurance.
