Man is the only animal that blushes - or needs to.
Man is the only animal capable of reasoning, though many others possess the faculty of memory and instruction in common with him.
For many people who are so lost in their minds, so much involved in their thought processes, the only moments they have when they are not trapped in that is when they are relating to their animal, their pet.
The human being is in the most literal sense a political animal, not merely a gregarious animal, but an animal which can individuate itself only in the midst of society.
When I auditioned for 'Animal House,' I had only done some plays at a local dinner theater in Virginia.
The American diet causes disease. It is composed of 25 percent animal products and 62 percent processed foods and only 5 percent of calories from fruits and vegetables.
I'm not into animal rights. I'm only into animal welfare and health. I've been with the Morris Animal Foundation since the '70s. We're a health organization. We fund campaign health studies for dogs, cats, lizards and wildlife. I've worked with the L.A. Zoo for about the same length of time. I get my animal fixes!
Human beings are the only animals of which I am thoroughly and cravenly afraid.
A century ago, scientists believed there was only one obvious stomping ground for alien biology in our solar system: Mars. Because it was reminiscent of Earth, Mars was assumed to be chock-a-block with animate beings, and its putative inhabitants got a lot of column inches and screen time.
Animators can only draw from their own experiences of pain and shock and emotions.
When my ancestors came from Africa, they were shackled by our neck, our wrists, and our ankles in steel chains. I've turned those steel chains into gold to symbolize the fact that I'm still a slave, only my price tag is higher.
There's nothing wrong with ankles. But only if you're playing football in the park.
The only things I really love about myself physically are my ankles and my hair.
I've been inside the Anne Frank house. You've only read about Anne Frank in grade school. I've been in it. I've seen the diary. Things that teachers couldn't teach you.
A destruction, an annihilation that only man can provoke, only man can prevent.
The only people I ever get irritated with are the ones who announce, using my Twitter handle, that they are no longer following me and why.
Sending a handwritten letter is becoming such an anomaly. It's disappearing. My mom is the only one who still writes me letters. And there's something visceral about opening a letter - I see her on the page. I see her in her handwriting.
I have a place that I get to go to in the Bahamas. It's the only place that guarantees total anonymity and freedom.
The only truly anonymous donor is the guy who knocks up your daughter.
There are only two ways of telling the complete truth - anonymously and posthumously.
