...humans were the only creatures in the world that ate their food cooked. you'd never find a gorilla frying up some bananas for dinner or a lion charcoal-broiling a zebra steak. cats don't often run to the oven with a mouse or bird they've captured, and a dog wouldn't naturally prepare its rabbit dinner in a stew.

Running Dog Zebras

More From Dick Gregory

I asked the zebra, are you black with white stripes? or white with black stripes? and the zebra asked me, are you good with bad habits? or are you bad with good habits? are you noisy with quiet times? or are you quiet with noisy times? are you happy with some sad days? or are you sad with some happy days? are you neat with some sloppy ways? or are you sloppy with some neat ways? and on and on and on and on and on and on he went. i’ll never ask a zebra about stripes...again.
Zebras White Black
If a dog is biting a black man, the black man should kill the dog, whether the dog is a police dog or a hound dog or any kind of dog. if a dog is fixed on a black man when that black man is doing nothing but trying to take advantage of what the government says is supposed to be his, then that black man should kill that dog or any two-legged dog who sets the dog on him.

This is not that, and that is certainly not this, and at the same time an oyster stew is not stewed, and although they are made of the same things and even cooked almost the same way, an oyster soup should never be called a stew, nor stew soup.

It is easy to understand why the cat has eclipsed the dog as modern america's favorite pet. people like pets to possess the same qualities they do. cats are irresponsible and recognize no authority, yet are completely dependent on others for their material needs. cats cannot be made to do anything useful. cats are mean for the fun of it. in fact, cats possess so many of the same qualities as people that it is often hard to tell the people and the cats apart.

When you're wearing an animal costume and something bad happens, your facial expression doesn't change. the animal is deadpan the whole time. if you're skiing in a gorilla suit and you fall, you just see a gorilla who has no emotion. it's just a stoic gorilla, wildly falling down a hill, out of control.
Fall Animal Expression
Regarded anatomically, the resemblances between the foot of man and the foot of the gorilla are far more striking and important than the differences... be the differences between the hand and foot of man and those of the gorilla what they may the differences between those of the gorilla and those of the lower apes are much greater.

The great end of being is to harmonize man with the order of things, and the church has been a good pitch-pipe, and may be so still.

It is not poverty so much as pretense that harasses a ruined man - the struggle between a proud mind and an empty purse - the keeping up of a hollow show that must soon come to an end.
