derstand, you've got to get off my back! Dad. You're my father. I'm your son, I love you. I always have and I always will. But you think of yourself as a colored man. I think of myself... as a man."-- "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" Milhouse: Making movies is so repetitive. I've said Jiminy Jillikers so many times the words have lost all meaning! Director: We've got to do the Jiminy Jillikers scene again, Milhouse. Milhouse: [fuming] But we already did it. It took seven hours, but we did it. It's done! Director: Yes, but we've got to do it from different angles! Again and again! And again and again and again and again and again "Oh you were serious? Let me laugh harder."--Futurama "Don’t believe anyone who says that since nature is based on a struggle for life, we need to live like this as well. Many animals survive not by eliminating each other or by keeping everything for themselves, but by cooperating and sharing. This applies most definitely to pack hunters, such as wolves or killer whales, but also our closest relatives, the primates. In a study in Taï National Park, in Ivory Coast, chimpanzees took care of group mates wounded by leopards, licking their blood, carefully removing dirt, and waving away flies that came near the wounds. They protected injured companions, and slowed down during travel in order to accommodate them. All of this makes perfect sense given that chimpanzees live in groups for a reason, the same way wolves and humans are group animals for a reason. If man is wolf to man, he is so in every sense, not just the negative one. We would not be where we are today had our ancestors been socially aloof. What we need is a complete overhaul of assumptions about human nature. Too many economists and politicians model human society on the perpetual struggle they believe exists in nature, but which is a mere projection. Like magicians, they first throw their ideological prejudices into the hat of nature, then pull them out by their very ears to show how much nature agrees with them. It’s a trick for which we have fallen for too long. Obviously, competition is part of the picture, but humans can’t live by competition alone."--Frans de Waal".
