Animal Skin

Famous quotes containing the words animal and/or skin:

“Labor came to humanity with the fall from grace and was at best a penitential sacrifice enabling purity through humiliation. Labor was toil, distress, trouble, fatigue—an exertion both painful and compulsory. Labor was our animal condition, struggling to survive in dirt and darkness.”
—Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)

“Do I not bate? do I not dwindle? Why, my skin hangs about me like an old lady’s loose gown; I am withered like an old
apple-john.”
