“Make no mistake, your relationships are the heaviest components in your life. All those negotiations and arguments and secrets, the compromises. The slower we move the faster we die. Make no mistake, moving is living. Some animals were meant to carry each other. To live symbiotically over a lifetime. Star crossed lovers, monogamous swans. We are not swans. We are sharks.” MovingDiesStarsAnimalSecretMistakeLoversArgumentLifetimeCompromiseFasterOur RelationshipNegotiationComponentsSharksSwansStar Crossed Lovers Author:Ryan Bingham
“The Human is the only animal on earth that pays a thousand times for the same mistake. We make a mistake, we judge ourselves, we find ourselves guilty, and we punish ourselves. Every time we remember, we judge ourselves again, we are guilty again, and we punish ourselves again and again and again.” HumansEarthRememberAnimalPayMistakeJudgingThousandGuiltyAgain And AgainSame Mistakes Author:Miguel Angel Ruiz

“Man is a gregarious animal. He's not supposed to live in isolation. He should actually live in a community, but a community does not necessarily have to be a city. There's all the evidence in the world that the building of cities is one of the worst mistakes that mankind has ever made: For both physical and mental health we've got to be close to Mother Earth.” MenWorldShouldDoeMadeEarthMotherCommunityAnimalCitiesMistakeWorstMankindBuildingEvidenceMental HealthIsolationMother EarthGregarious Author:Ralph Borsodi
“We talked about how easy it was to make the mistake of anthropomorphizing animals, and projecting our own feelings and perceptions on to them, where they were inappropriate and didn't fit. We simply had no idea what it was like being an extremely large lizard, and neither for that matter did the lizard, because it was not self-conscious about being an extremely large lizard, it just got on with the business of being one. To react with revulsion to its behavior was to make the mistake of applying criteria that are only appropriate to the business of being human.” HumansIdeasSelfMatterFeelingsEasyAnimalMistakeFitBehaviorPerceptionConsciousNo IdeaAppropriateBeing HumanCriteriaSelf ConsciousInappropriateLizardsRevulsion Author:Douglas Adams
