Here's the thing: this eel spends its entire life trying to find a home, and what do you think women have inside them? caves, where the eels like to live...when they find a cave they like, the wriggle around inside it for a while to be sure that...well, to be sure it's a nice cave, i suppose. and when they've made up their minds that it's comfortable, they mark the cave as their territory...by spitting.

Modern language must be older than the cave paintings and cave engravings and cave sculptures and dance steps in the soft clay in the caves in western europe, in the aurignacian period some 35,000 years ago, or earlier. i can't believe they did all those things and didn't also have a modern language.

Of course the man was wild too. he was dreadfully wild. he didn't even begin to be tame till he met the woman, and she told him that she did not like living in his wild ways. she picked out a nice dry cave, instead of a heap of wet leaves, to lie down in; and she strewed clean sand on the floor; and she lit a nice fire of wood at the back of the cave; and she hung a dried wild-horse skin, tail down, across the opening of the cave; and she said, 'wipe your feet, dear, when you come in, and now we'll keep house.

"you let him fight?" stop changing the subject! you realize what you are asking me to do? my palace will be destroyed. "and olympus might be saved." do you have any idea how long i've worked on remodeling this palace? the game room alone took six hundred years. "dad—" very well! it shall be as you say. but my son, pray this works. "i am praying. i'm talking to you, right?" oh . . . yes. good point.

How you're still always trapped. how your head is the cave, your eyes the cave mouth. how you live inside your head and only see what you want. how you only watch the shadows and make up your own meaning.

If we're going to improve the environment, the first thing we should do is duck the government. the second thing we should do is quit being moral. screw the rights of nature. nature will have rights as soon as it get duties. the minute we see birds, trees, bugs, and squirrels picking up litter, giving money to charity, and keeping an eye on our kids at the park, we'll let them vote.
