The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

No, because humans pretty much created dogs. Which sounds like something a mad scientist would do, soo...

But cats domesticated themselves. They looked at humans and thought

"...Cat owners may disagree, and cite all kinds of “evidence” that cats are actually smarter because of their instinctive talents despite a stubborn resistance to training, but if a human child can’t be trained, we call him “learning disabled”.

Much more than dogs. Humans have been responsible for the development of a massive chunk of land based species, including plants.

I love cats, but I won't claim for a second they're smarter than dogs. Lately I've been more interested in getting a dog, though. More companionship.

And sycophancy.

But dogs are the most important one. Without them, humans wouldn't be the same. They are, of course, man's best friend.
