I am not very proud of being an human being; in fact, I distinctly dislike the species in many ways. I can readily conceive of beings vastly superior in every respect.

I have striven not to laugh at human actions, not to weep at them, nor to hate them, but to understand them.

There's nothing I despise more than people trying to be something that they're not.

We often pretend to fear what we really despise, and more often despise what we really fear.

The worst sin toward our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them: that's the essence of inhumanity.

I hate the human race. Of course, therefore, I hate myself the most, because I am the least of the human race.

I'm obsessed with being human.

I think I've become more comfortable about being a human being.

Human beings are the only animals of which I am thoroughly and cravenly afraid.

I don't despise people.
