“The forest has shrunk And fear has expanded, The forests have dwindled, There are less animals now, less courage and less lightning, less beauty and the moon lies bare, deflowered by force and then abandoned.” LyingForceFearAnimalMoonForestsAbandonedLightning Author:Visar Zhiti
“Once we were happy in our own country and we were seldom hungry, for then the two-leggeds and the four-leggeds lived together like relatives, and there was plenty for them and for us. But the Wasichus came, and they have made little islands for us and other little islands for the four-leggeds, and always these islands are becoming smaller, for around them surges the gnawing flood of the Wasichu; and it is dirty with lies and greed.” LittlesMadeTwoCountryTogetherLyingAnimalFourBecomingCreaturesGreedHungryPlentyDirtyIslandsFlood Author:Black Elk

“Here, I think, lies our real dilemma. Probably we cannot, certainly we shall not, retrace our steps. We are tamed animals (some with kind, some with cruel, masters) and should probably starve if we got out of our cage. That is one horn of the dilemma. But in an increasingly planned society, how much of what I value can survive? That is the other horn.” IfsThinkingShouldKindRealLyingValuesAnimalStepsMastersCagesHornsDilemmaTamed Author:C. S. Lewis

“One would wonder to hear skeptical men disputing for the reason of animals, and telling us it is only our pride and prejudices that will not allow them the use of that faculty. Reason shows itself in all occurrences of life; whereas the brute makes no discovery of such a talent, but in what immediately regards his own preservation, or the continuance of his species. Animals in their generation are wiser than the sons of men; but their wisdom is confined to a few particulars, and lies in a very narrow compass. Take a brute out of his instinct, and you find him wholly deprived of understanding.” MenReasonUseShowsLyingUnderstandingAnimalWonderGenerationsTalentSonPrideDiscoveryPrejudiceRegardInstinctSpeciesFacultyHumankindWiserPreservationCompassDeprivedConfinedSkepticalBrutesContinuance Book:The spectator Source: The spectator
