For centuries poets, some poets, have tried to give a voice to the animals, and readers, some readers, have felt empathy and sorrow.

Their mysterious otherness has not saved them, nor have their beautiful songs and coats and skins and shells and eyes.

It is the sum of our experiences that makes us interesting, and having been through a time in your life in which you were in a bad place (or what you perceived as a bad place) physically, can be useful. It can even be necessary.

Karl Lagerfeld
