Стишок про поросенка в соответственной теме напомнил одну услышанную когда-то или прочитанную фразу.

Детёныш обезьяны вырастает только в обезьяну, поросёнок — в свинью, ослёнок — в осла, козлёнок — в козла… Человеческий младенец может вырасти в любого из вышеперечисленного! …

Мне класса с седьмого нравится М. Монтень. Вот одно из моих любимых его выражений (на мой взгляд, актуально и по сей день):

"Изумительно суетное, поистине непостоянное и вечно колеблющееся существо — человек".

И еще одно:

"It is a policeman's duty to protect men from criminals—criminals being those who seize wealth by force. It is a policeman's duty to retrieve stolen property and return it to its owners. But when robbery becomes the purpose of the law, and the policeman's duty becomes, not the protection, but the plunder of property—then it is an outlaw who has to become a policeman."

Ragnar Danneskjöld in Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged"
