Man is what he is 2007.08.14
Posted by Dagenham in quote.trackback
Man is what he is, a wild animal with the will to survive, and (so far) the ability, against all competition. Unless one accepts that, anything one says about morals, war, politics – you name it – is nonsense. Correct morals arise from knowing what Man is – not what do gooders and well-meaning old Aunt Nellies would like him to be.
The universe will let us know – later – whether or not Man has any “right” to expand through it.
