Quotes[edit]

  • We have an easy time thinking of animals as animals in part because they smell like animals. But what are you supposed to think when you find a group of humans who smell no better than cows, even worse? It reminds you that humans are animals, with the ability to stink like pigs, and kill like the wolves.
  • There is nothing like an odor to stir memories.
