“Having so recently been one of the underdogs of the savannah, we are full of fears and anxieties over our position, which makes us doubly cruel and dangerous. Many historical calamities, from deadly wars to ecological catastrophes, have resulted from this over-hasty jump.”
― Yuval Noah Harari, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

“It’s not our kind of story. We like to see underdogs win. But there is no justice in history.”
― Yuval Noah Harari, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

“Biologically, there is actually no such thing as race – nothing in terms of skin colour, facial features, hair type, bone structure, or anything else that is a defining quality among peoples.

― Bill Bryson, The Body: A Guide for Occupants
