Quote by Maddy Kobar

“Two towering beasts were brought to us. I do not say this lightly for I am the tallest man I know and Alexander isn't that much shorter than me. These great horses looked me squarely in the eye; which was something most people couldn't manage. They were rather terrifying to behold; made entirely of muscle and grit. "Yes, they're perfect." Alexander smiles and I wonder if he has lost his mind. He puts a hand to each of their large muzzles. Rather than destroy him, the two massive horses seem calmed by his presence.”

“Your future is bright. Just stop hanging around people who try to dim your light and you will climb up to a higher height! Don't give up on the fight! Stand up for your right! It's within your might!”

“Don't tell me I'm "too tall" just because my height happens to threaten your rather fragile sense of masculinity. The fact that men cannot look down upon women who are taller than them is the very reason that many men find tall women so intimidating.”

“The tallest adults are the ones who had the most childhood and adolescent growth before puberty started; puberty typically tacks on a standard nine inches, and then the game's over. "The children who are going to be the biggest adults are those who are tall by age one or two, and have a relatively late puberty," says Rosenfeld.”

“Each of us lives with unseen but profoundly felt battles that are invisible to others. However, within those struggles lies the incredible power of resilience, a force that can help us triumph over any challenge. There is a possibility that the world would misinterpret us, but the perspective of others does not define our strength; instead, it is our refusal to give up. Beauty and tragedy can coexist—just as hope and the human spirit may.”
