Human nature Quote by Jorvan Robinson
“My nature, My personality; who I am. It all came to me last night, I'm a shark. Unlike others who can fly in the sky and walk the land; I'm limited by the ocean. I Attack without care who or what's in my way. Many hate me and many fear me. My hunger for more grows by the seconds. Because of my unfriendly nature even with the strongest love my love fears to hold on to me. The shark's love life is the hardest of all, and his heart not to be tempered with.”
