About This Quote

A person who is suffering pain and is unable to bear it, will lash out at those around him and cause pain to others. The mountain lion in the story is suffering from a broken leg and is so in anguish that he howls continuously. His pain has reached such a level that he cannot see or obey his instinct to find prey or find shelter. A truly fearsome monster, "the lion" is only one example of the result of suffering too much evil.
