George Bernard Shaw, Man and Superman

“I had learned that a dexterous, opposable thumb stood among the hallmarks of human success. We had maintained, even exaggerated, this important flexibility of our primate forebears, while most mammals had sacrificed it in specializing their digits. Carnivores run, stab, and scratch. My cat may manipulate me psychologically, but he'll never type or play the piano.”
Stephen Jay Gould, The Panda's Thumb: More Reflections in Natural History

“[Option 3 for the fat man] Or he can get tough and stick to a big fat steak and a half cup of black coffee three times a day... In doing this he will be somewhat in the class of a pioneer, and a pioneer always meets with suspicion. No matter how well he does, he need not expect the approval of his neighbors. Any disaster that may overtake him, even to the extent of ground moles getting in his lawn, will be blamed on his “red meatâ€� diet...”
Dr. Blake F. Donaldson

Delia Owens
“Any information about how many of them live in a group, whether or not they defend a communal territory, and why they associate together is important for the conservation of hyenas. But there is another reason to investigate their social life: Man is also a social carnivore, and by understanding the evolution and nature of societies of other predators, we can better understand our own sense of territoriality, our need for identity as part of a group, and our aggressive tendencies as competitors.”
Delia Owens, Cry of the Kalahari

“It's bad poetry executed by people that can't sing. That's my definition of Rap.”
Peter Steele

“Man got to the top of the evolutionary heap by eating everything that got in his way. And if he wants to stay there, he had better keep doing it.”
