“Are not the sane and the insane equal at night as the sane lie a dreaming?”
― Charles Dickens

“The Sum of the whole is this: In the Scripture Account of the Original Constitution of Men and Brutes, the very same Terms are applied to Both. Are the Brutes of the Dust of the Ground? So is Man. Have Men the Breath of Life in their Nostrils? So have Brutes. Are the One Living Souls? So are the Other. For the Lord GOD formed both Man and Brute of the Dust of the Ground, and breathed into their Nostrils the Breath of Life, and so Man and Brute became LIVING SOULS, or (ch. vii. 4. 23.) LIVING SUBSTANCES.”
― Humphrey Primatt, The Duty of Mercy: A Dissertation on the Duty of Mercy and Sin of Cruelty to Brute Animals
