dog moving heart
My dog does not care where heat comes from, but he cares that it comes, and soon. Indeed he considers my ability to make it come as something magical, for when I rise in the coal black pre-dawn and kneel by the hearth to make a fire, he pushes himself blandly between me and the kindling splits I have laid in the ashes, and I must touch a match to them by poking it between his legs. Such faith , I suppose, is the kind that moves mountains. Aldo Leopold

dog atheist fear
You never see animals going through the absurd and often horrible fooleries of magic and religion. . . .

It is the price he has to pay for being intelligent but not, as yet, quite intelligent enough. Aldous Huxley
