Try repeating “man is an animal" a few times, just to notice how unconvincing it sounds. There seems to be no way to get this idea into our heads, except by long rumination over the facts of evolution or perhaps by exposure to a primitive tribe or by being raised on a farm. Primitives sometimes see little difference between themselves and the animals around them. Karl von den Steinen was told by a Xingu that the only difference between them and the monkey was that they monkeys lacked the bow and arrow. And Jules Henry observed on the Kningang that dogs are not considered pets, like some of the other animals, but are on a level of emotional equality, like a relative. But in our own Western culture we have, for the most part, set a great distance between ourselves and the rest of nature, and language helps us to do this. Thus we say that a sheep “drops" its lamb, but a woman “gives birth"—it’s much more noble. Yet we have the right to make such distinctions because we assign the meaning to the world by naming names of things; we inhabit a different sphere and we capitalize naturally on the privilege.

It is very difficult to understand man. It is also very difficult to understand what a man does. If he is able to give an explanation, it may be easier. Even then everything can not be understood. Words have their limitation and comprehension, its limits. So if we are able to understand 25% of what is being said, even that should be deemed, as good communication skills are very good. Beyond this one should not even aspire for.

To all those who still wish to talk about man, about his reign or his liberation, to all those who still ask themselves questions about what man is in his essence, to all those who wish to take him as their starting-point in their attempts to reach the truth, to all those who, on the other hand, refer all knowledge back to the truths of man himself, to all those who refuse to formalize without anthropologizing, who refuse to mythologize without demystifying, who refuse to think without immediately thinking that it is man who is thinking, to all these warped and twisted forms of reflection we can answer only with a philosophical laugh – which means, to a certain extent, a silent one.

A pierde tot ce se poate pierde"
Bărbatul este un animal indirect,
Gingaş sufletul lui
de neînţeles este.
Umbra unei frunze o ţine în braţe,
frunza nu, frunza nu.
Fuga unui iepure o ţine pe câmp,
iepurele nu, iepurele nu
Foame îi e de ce n-au mâncat alţii, -
frig îi e
tot timpul de alte stele
Animal indirect, lumină pentru orbi, -
gingaşului se vădeşte,
prin băltoaca de sânge
Nu naşte ci visează, -
nu doarme ci ţine în mână arma!
Neputând să piardă nimic
el pierde totul!
moare numai omorând.
Inventează puterea din absenţă.
Lumină în sine însuşi.
Ochi scobiţi cu degetul şi scurşi obraji,
ud al luminii, -
neputând să ţii un copil în pântec
tăierea gâtului în chip de sabie
o ţii îngropată în pământul de război al nimănuia
Ce poţi să pierzi tu, -
născut pentru pierdere totul îţi este destinat pierderii
Animal indirect
sufletul tău gingaş nimănuia
de trebuinţă este
Bagă mâna în pământ şi scoate
sabia iar nu sămânţa!
în singurătatea lui A
nu-l îndrăzni pe 1
Animal indirect
lasă-te sus.
Ymir was a frost giant; he was evil from the first. While he slept, he began to sweat. A man and woman grew out of the ooze under his left armpit, and one of his legs fathered a son on the other leg.
