"Now, comrades, what is the nature of this life of ours? Let us face
it: our lives are miserable, laborious, and short. We are born, we are
given just so much food as will keep the breath in our bodies, and those
of us who are capable of it are forced to work to the last atom of our
strength; and the very instant that our usefulness has come to an end we
are slaughtered with hideous cruelty.....The life of an animal is misery
and slavery: that is the plain truth.....Man is the only real enemy we
have"
-Major, an elder boar,
speaking in 'Animal Farm' by George Orwell
