More From Frederick The Great

When you live in a poor neighborhood, you are living in an area where you have poor schools. when you have poor schools, you have poor teachers. when you have poor teachers, you get a poor education. when you get a poor education, you can only work in a poor-paying job. and that poor-paying job enables you to live again in a poor neighborhood. so, it's a very vicious cycle.

It must be stressed that there is nothing insulting about looking at people as animals. we are animals, after all. homo sapiens is a species of primate, a biological phenomenon dominated by biological rules, like any other species. human nature is no more than one particular kind of animal nature. agreed, the human species is an extraordinary animal; but all other species are also extraordinary animals, each in their own way, and the scientific man-watcher can bring many fresh insights to the study of human affairs if he can retain this basic attitude of evolutionary humility.

There is no doubt, that man is not built to be a carnivorous animal. what a sweet, pleasing and innocent sight is the spectacle of a table served that way and what a difference to a make up of fuming animal meat, slaughtered and dead! man in no way has the constitution of a carnivorous being. hunt and voracity are unnatural to him. man has neither the sharp pointed teeth or claws to slaughter his prey. on the contrary his hands are made to pick fruits, berries and vegetables and teeth appropriate to chew them.

Man cannot survive except through his mind. he comes on earth unarmed. his brain is his only weapon. animals obtain food by force. man had no claws, no fangs, no horns, no great strength of muscle. he must plant his food or hunt it. to plant, he needs a process of thought. to hunt, he needs weapons,and to make weapons - a process of thought. from this simplest necessity to the highest religious abstraction, from the wheel to the skyscraper, everything we are and we have comes from a single attribute of man -the function of his reasoning mind.

Animal experimentation is the blackest of all the black crimes that a man is at present committing... we should be able to refuse to live if the price of living be the torture of sentient beings... i abhor [animal] experimentation with my whole soul. all the scientific discoveries stained with innocent blood i count as of no consequence... the greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.
Animal Greatness Men
Man is the only animal who does not feel at home in nature, who can feel evicted from paradise, the only animal for whom his own existence is a problem that he has to solve and from which he cannot escape. he cannot go back to the prehuman state of harmony with nature, and he does not know where he will arrive if he goes forward. man's existential contradiction results in a state of constant disequilibrium. this disequilibrium distinguishes him from the animal, which lives, as it were, in harmony with nature.

Being the stream meditation is not just a rest or retreat from the turmoil of the stream or the impurity of the world. it is a way of being the stream, so that one can be at home in both the white water and the eddies. meditation may take one out of the world, but it also puts one totally into it.
