Quotes About Hunters
Sometimes Raymond wonders what it is like to be a duck: What is it like to have a facial expression so frozen that no one, not even another duck, can tell if you are in pain?

We can shoot them because they can't feel emotion." But that's not true, Raymond thinks. Not even a little bit.

It's revealing, then, to look at modern society through the prism of more than a million years of human cooperation and resource sharing.
