Our (sort of) statement
'We, the modern knowledgeable of all knowledgeable humans, as we care to name ourselves, are no more than an immeasurable brief eye blink in the course of evolution, immensely less than the commonest of all bacteria.
Yet, we have never been able to contemplate anything without, in our incommensurable arrogance and painstaking stupidity, changing it—not for the sake of insight, knowledge, or wisdom, nor because of it, but in the name of meager superstitious and unfounded beliefs.
This modern knowledgeable of all knowledgeable humans have made a life of living—and dying—in antagonism, resenting all and the lot. Yet, evolution shows unequivocally that the secret of a prolonged survival throughout centuries and millennia lays not in living against, but in living with. Inexorably accepting, understanding, and respecting other living beings, independently of species and race—and herein lays the magical formula.'
Roger Abrantes (from 'The Evolution')
