the well written - hermann hesse

How absurd these words are, such as beast and beast of prey. One
should not speak of animals in that way. They may be terrible
sometimes, but they're much more right than men...They're never
in any embarrassment. They always know what to do and how to
behave themselves. They don't flatter and they don't intrude. They
don't pretend. They are as they are, like stones or flowers or stars
in the sky.

- Hermann Hesse, Steppenwolf
