  2. I have been thinking all day for a quote to use on someone who has been coming after a comment I wrote to an editorial. Perfect so perfect!

  3. or so we think? How do we know dolphins don't contemplate existentialism? (or mole rats, or elephants for that matter)

      I have no doubt at all that elephants and Dolphins, apes and other critters all have a sense of self-identity to a degree; the point of this quote is, though, that none of them feels they have to justify their existence. They accept their lives. The Human critter, however, is never satisfied! It is this which drove it to become the dominant species. Constantly seeking the 'answer to everything'... Yxx
