"What is life but animated and imperfect clockwork designed to keep the cosmos entertained at our expense? I have never heard feasible testimony to the so-called 'glory' of life.

The rabbits and foxes go happily ignorant, unaware of their true suffering. It is our burden to know, know the wretched life we live."
