Angry Quote by Maggie Stiefvater

“look, getting bitten doesn't make you into a monster. It just makes you a wolf. You are what you are. When you're a wolf, or when you're shifting, you don't have human inhibitions, so if you're naturally angry or violent, you get worse.” quote by Maggie Stiefvater
