It seems (...) that people corrupted nature because they were not born wolves, and lo and behold, they became wolves. The Lord God did not give them twenty-four important cannons or bayonets, and yet they made themselves cannons and bayonets, just to destroy each other.

Hungarian

"Úgy látszik (...), hogy az emberek megrontották a természetet, mert nem születtek farkasoknak, és lám, mégis farkasok lettek. Az Úristen nem adott nékik huszonnégy fontos ágyúkat, se szuronyokat, s mégis csináltak maguknak ágyúkat és szuronyokat, csak hogy elpusztítsák egymást."
