The happiness and unhappiness of the rational, social animal depends not on what he feels but on what he does; just as his virtue and vice consist not in feeling but in doing.
- Marcus Aurelius
Your average witch is not, by nature, a social animal as far as other witches are concerned. There's a conflict of dominant personalities. There's a group of ringleaders without a ring. There's the basic unwritten rule of witchcraft, which is 'Don't do what you will, do what I say.' The natural size of a coven is one. Witches only get together when they can't avoid it.
- Terry Pratchett
Government! Three-fourths parasitic and the rest stupid fumbling - oh, Harshaw concluded that man, a social animal, could not avoid government, any more than an individual could escape bondage to his bowels. But simply because an evil was inescapable was no reason to term it "good." He wished that government would wander off and get lost! (96)
- Robert A Heinlein
The human animal has evolved as a preeminently social animal.
- Leon Kass
Nonconformity is the highest evolutionary attainment of social animals.
- Aldo Leopold
I think what he loved about me the most was that I wasn't part of that world. But once we were together publicly, he wanted to change me into that social animal.
- Marla Maples
Altruism, a jargon word for what used to be called love, is worse than weakness, it is sin, a violation of nature. Be seperate. Do not be a social animal.
- Lewis Thomas
If you like a person you say 'let's go into business together.' Man is a social animal after all, but such partnerships are fraught with danger.
- Brian Tracy
Man has been adjudged a social animal.
