“But some of us have been educated by surprises out of much that we were 'absolutely sure' of...”
“It has been a long time since philosophers have read men’s souls. It is not their task, we are told. Perhaps. But we must not be surprised if they no longer matter much to us.”
“We must have been hunters and gatherers but some of us were just waiters and hopers.”
“I said I *liked* being half-educated; you were so much more *surprised* at everything when you were ignorant.”
“We raise them for us; that means we owe them some respect. nature is creul but we dont have to be. I wouldnt want to have my guts ripped out by a lion. I'd much rather die in a slaughter house if it were done right.”
“In some ways, we've been through something no one else can ever understand but the two of us... And it made me realize. We are always and absolutely better together.”
