About This Quote
This is a twisted logic that betrays the true meaning of intellect. Man does not know right from wrong with the same instinct that animals do. Man has to be taught what is right and what is wrong. But it does not mean that man thinks any less than other animals. Human beings are the only race on this planet who can think of themselves as superior to other creatures because they have developed their ability to judge others, while all others remained in their natural state of uncivilized people.
