Shrews Quotes - Page 2

• The young mouse's eyes snapped open, clear and bright. He swung the ancient sword high and struck at the giant adder. He struck for Redwall! He struck against evil! He struck for Martin! He struck for Log-a-Log and his shrews! He struck for dead Guosim! He struck as Methuselah would have wanted him to! He struck against Cluny the Scourge and tyranny! He struck out against Captain Snow's ridicule! He struck for the world of light and freedom! He struck until his paws ached and the sword fell from them!

• Para explicar el engaño se recurre a los ejemplos habituales de comportamiento animal. Es curioso que el comportamiento de las musarañas y los gibones nunca se utilice para explicar los modales en la mesa o la seguridad vial o la jardinería, sólo el sexo. En fin, era darwinismo del malo. Tomar el ejemplo de un mono y aplicártelo a ti mismo no tiene en cuenta que el comportamiento animal se hace en beneficio de la especie, no como excusa para el individuo. Ser incapaz de mantener una pareja estable y mantener a los hijos no redunda realmente en beneficio de nuestra especie. Tampoco es realmente en beneficio del mujeriego.
