Quotes: Scorpion in nature & tone

I was thinking about how many quotes hold a sense of individuality and attitude. While reflecting upon that, I wondered what quotes could be held in value to an individual for a specific reason. The Scorpion forum has an air to it.. a la 'meeting of the minds'. I thought bringing this up here may foster some interesting thoughts and reflections for some. 🙂 I'm probably going to post thus in some other signs' forums as well.. Anyway!

Share some quotes that you feel hold a Scorpion quality of some sort.

Two specifications:
- It does NOT have to be stated/created by a Scorpio + 'anonymous' is okay to quote
- It cannot mention astrology, zodiac, or Scorpio

I'd like to see the direction this begins to take (if its responded to lmao) before I contribute any quotes. 😛

My other half & I discussed the former quote before. Sometimes we will stay silent because we know sometimes the over analyzing and investigative nature of ourselves are better off being kept internal rather than external.
