“You think human nature is a beast, that it must be put in a cage. But it's the cage that makes the animal bad.”
“Are we animals because we're caged, or caged because we're animals? I think it's both.”
“Such actions are beyond praise: it is the perfume of such sweet and noble human sympathy that makes this wild beasts' cage a world habitable for men.”
“...But the human tongue is a beast that few can master. It strains constantly to break out of its cage, and if it is not tamed, it will tun wild and cause you grief.”
“In zoos, along with the animals, the humanity of man is also prisoned! No cage is humane!”
“I think of animals in cages, pressed close against each other.”
