Spotted Hyena/relationships With Humans

Famous quotes containing the words spotted, hyena and/or humans:

    What the horrors of war are, no one can imagine. They are not wounds and blood and fever, spotted and low, or dysentery, chronic and acute, cold and heat and famine. They are intoxication, drunken brutality, demoralisation and disorder on the part of the inferior ... jealousies, meanness, indifference, selfish brutality on the part of the superior.
    Florence Nightingale (1820–1910)

    There’s always the hyena of morality at the garden gate, and the real wolf at the end of the street.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Here we also see: what this divinity lacks is not only a sense of shame—and there are also other reasons for conjecturing that in several respects all of the gods could learn from us humans. We humans are—more humane.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
