Quote by Charles F Glassman

“ALL humans—you and me—are made up of two components: an animal nature and a divine nature. We don’t say the lion is bad when it kills the gazelle to eat it. That’s because it is an animal. Bad things happen, though, when we humans act in accordance with our animal nature. Not only does it block access to the divine, it causes us to devour others.”
