The Bestiary

Are we not entirely animal?

"Abelard, have you have never questioned it, delved into the magnificent architecture of the body? How the blood runs like a river through us, the bones hold us like a delicate tree, our senses swaying like leaves in autumn, our hair pushing out long after our death--does this not fascinate you? Does not your mouth, does not your hands fascinate you?"
