Text Quotes
It ought to be realized by all dog owners that obesity shortens a dog’s life quite considerably, a life which is much too short anyhow.  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) ...he who has seen the intimate beauty of nature cannot tear himself away from it again. He must become either a poet or a naturalist and, if his eyes are keen and his powers of observation sharp enough, he may well become both.  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) The distance at which all shooting weapons take effect screens the killer against the stimulus sensation which would otherwise activate his killing inhibitions. The deep, emotional layers of our personality simply do not register the fact that the crooking of the finger to release a shot tears the entrails of another man  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) All the advantages that man has gained from his ever-deepening understanding of the natural world that surrounds him, his technological, chemical and medical progress, all of which should seem to alleviate human suffering... tends instead to favor humanity’s destruction  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) Barking dogs may occasionally bite, but laughing men hardly ever shoot  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) It ought to be realized by all dog owners that obesity shortens a dog’s life quite considerably, a life which is much too short anyhow  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) Few animals display their mood via facial expressions as distinctly as cats  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) Man has been driven out of the paradise in which he could trust his instincts  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) The fidelity of a dog is a precious gift  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) Barking dogs occasionally bite, but laughing men hardly ever shoot  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) Humor and knowledge are the two great hopes of our culture  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) The human soul is very much older than the human mind  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) Just thinking that my dog loves me more than I love him, I feel shame  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) Hatred of humanity and love of animals make a very bad combination  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) Man appears to be the missing link between anthropoid apes and human beings  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) The cat is a wild animal that inhabits the homes of humans  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) I believe that present day civilized man suffers from insufficient discharge of his aggressive drive  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) We do not take humor seriously enough  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) All scientific knowledge to which man owes his role as master of the world arose from playful activities  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) Visualize yourself confronted with the task of killing, one after the other, a cabbage, a fly, a fish, a lizard, a guinea pig, a cat, a dog, a monkey and a baby chimpanzee. In the unlikely case that you should experience no greater inhibitions in killing the chimpanzee than in destroying the cabbage or the fly, my advice to you is to commit suicide at your earliest possible convenience, because you are a weird monstrosity and a public danger  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) I believe that both art and the human striving for cognitive comprehension are manifest forms of the grand game in which nothing more is stipulated than the game’s rules; both art and actively solicited perceptions are but special cases of the recurring creative act to which we owe our existence  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) ... he who has seen the intimate beauty of nature cannot tear himself away from it again. He must become either a poet or a naturalist and, if his eyes are keen and his powers of observation sharp enough, he may well become both  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) A man sufficiently gifted with humor is in small danger of succumbing to flattering delusions about himself, because he cannot help perceiving what a pompous ass he would become if he did  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) The bond with a dog is as lasting as the ties of this earth can ever be  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) More than any other product of human scientific culture scientific knowledge is the collective property of all mankind  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) Scientific truth is universal, because it is only discovered by the human brain and not made by it, as art is  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) The scientist knows very well that he is approaching ultimate truth only in an asymptotic curve and is barred from ever reaching it; but at the same time he is proudly aware of being indeed able to determine whether a statement is a nearer or a less near approach to the truth  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) Every mutation through a new combination of genetic factors that provides the organism with a new opportunity for coming to terms with the conditions of its environment signifies no more and no less than that new information about this environment has got into that organic system. Adaptation is essentially a cognitive process  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) It is a good morning exercise for a research scientist to discard a pet hypothesis every day before breakfast. It keeps him young  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes) Every man gets a narrower and narrower field of knowledge in which he must be an expert in order to compete with other people. The specialist knows more and more about less and less and finally knows everything about nothing  (Konrad Lorenz Quotes)
