"Throw a stick, and the servile dog wheezes
and pants and stumbles to bring it to you.
the same before a cat, and he will eye you with
coolly polite and somewhat bored amusement.
Ала just as inferior people prefer the inferior
animal which scampers excitedly because
someone else wants something, so
people respect the superior animal which lives
its own life and knows that the puerile stick- ars
throwings of alien bipeds are none of its
business and beneath its notice."
