The only animal from which humans have nothing to learn, in fact, is the sheep. Humans have already learned everything the sheep's got to teach.
Glen DuncanI suppose the word "unbearable" is a lie by definition. Unless you kill yourself immediately after using it.
Glen DuncanThereโs a reason humans peg-out around eighty: prose fatigue. It looks like organ failure or cancer or stroke but itโs really just the inability to carry on clambering through the assault course of mundane cause and effect. If we ask Sheila then we canโt ask Ron. If I have the kippers now then itโs quiche for tea. Four score years is about all the ifs and thens you can take. Dementiaโs the sane realisation you just canโt be doing with all that anymore.
