It's very limiting to us as a species, the concept of better-than/less-than. It just seems to be at its end. I'm like, this all fades to black, and it's gone. It's dust. Choose carefully what you obsess about.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As a species, we tend to be doers, forever shaping and reshaping the world to better suit our purposes.
Human nature must have come much nearer perfection than it is now, or will be in many generations, to exclude from such a control prejudice, selfishness, ambition, and injustice.
The human brain is built to compare; it's Darwinian to consider an alternative when one presents itself.
The fewer species there are and the fewer species we know about, the fewer questions we even know to ask.
I love not man the less, but Nature more.
We're surrounded by wonder, and yet we want more, and we want it bigger, faster, louder, better.
There is one Quality, which has somewhat so heavenly in it; that by so much the more we are possess'd of it, by so much the more we draw nearer to the Great Author of Nature.
Nature hasn't gone anywhere. It is all around us, all the planets, galaxies and so on. We are nothing in comparison.
Less is only more where more is no good.
Human nature is not nearly as bad as it has been thought to be.
