Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only
one that inflicts pain for the pleasure of doing it.
- "The Lowest Animal"
Illustration
from first edition of FOLLOWING THE EQUATOR
It is just like man's vanity and impertinence to call an animal dumb because
it is dumb to his dull perceptions.
- What is Man? Tommy Kelly
in the 1938 production of THE ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER from the Dave Thomson collection
