Mari says: Good point John! i'm sure you've heard that :"all animals are
created equal, but some animals are more equal than others." Although
Orwell is credited with the quote it was a pig named Napoleon in Orwell's
book Animal Farm that spoke those words. Who else in history ( person,
nation, other ) might have embraced that same notion?
If you talk to the animals they will talk with you and you will know each
other. If you do not talk to them you will not know them, and what you do
not know you will fear. What one fears, one destroys."
