"I want to be spontaneous like a wild animal"

- Giovanni Morassutti

About this Quote

Yearning for spontaneity is a longing for raw, unfiltered experience, much like how wild animals navigate their world. To be spontaneous like a wild animal is not just to act impulsively, but to embody an instinctual presence, to respond honestly and fully to the moment without the filter of overthinking or the weight of societal constraint. Wild animals are not burdened by self-doubt or social expectation; they move according to the genuine needs and desires that arise in each situation, whether it’s hunger, curiosity, or play. Their actions have a certain purity—a direct connection between feeling and doing—that people often lose through conditioning and the pressures to conform or to plan meticulously.

Embracing such spontaneity means trusting one’s instincts, being attuned to subtle cues from both the environment and one's own emotions. It requires letting go of the need to always control outcomes, instead welcoming uncertainty as a realm of possibility rather than a threat. Human creativity flourishes in such states—when the mind is free to make unexpected connections, to take risks, and to act with courage rather than calculation. Living spontaneously does not disregard responsibility, but it prioritizes aliveness and authenticity—qualities that keep life vibrant.

Many artists and thinkers recognize that inspiration often arises in moments of wildness, when they are closest to their essential selves. It is in these spontaneous acts that new discoveries are made, relationships deepen, and one’s sense of self expands. Giovanni Morassutti’s wish to be spontaneous like a wild animal points to the desire to reconnect with this primal energy, to listen more closely to inner voices, and to move through the world with a sense of curiosity and playfulness. It is a call to reclaim the untamed aspects of personality, inviting freedom and wholehearted engagement with life.
