Clint Eastwood Quotes

Life eats life to live.

The truth is, everything is eating and being eaten.

Those who live, live off the dead.

Take, for example, the African jungle, the home of the cheetah. On whom does the cheetah prey? The old, the sick, the wounded, the weak, the very young, but never the strong. Lesson: If you would not be prey, you had better be strong.

Fishes live in the sea, as men do on land: the great ones eat up the little ones.

You could think of an ecosystem as a bunch of antagonistic arms races, almost: Everything that an animal depends upon for food is the body part of some other animal or plant who would just as soon keep that body part for itself.

The sea is a place where every day, half the population eats the other half.

That's the food chain that cricket is sometimes. You have to be at the top of it otherwise you get swept away and eaten up.

Life feeds on life... feeds on life feeds on life... this is neccesary... this is necessary life feeds on life... feeds on life

The aim of life was meat. Life itself was meat. Life lived on life. There were the eaters and the eaten.

Man wants to see nature and evolution as separate from human activities. There is a natural world, and there is man. But man also belongs to the natural world. If he is a ferocious predator, that too is part of evolution. If cod and haddock and other species cannot survive because man kills them, something more adaptable will take their place. Nature, the ultimate pragmatist, doggedly searches for something that works. But as the cockroach demonstrates, what works best in nature does not always appeal to us.

And there's no getting around the fact that all life lives at the expense of another life.

Man and animals are in reality vehicles and conduits of food, tombs of animals, hostels of Death, coverings that consume, deriving life by the death of others.

Nature is trying very hard to make us succeed, but nature does not depend on us. We are not the only experiment.

Fishes live in the sea, as men do a-land; the great ones eat up the little ones.

Nature is an incredible cooperative. When things operate outside of that cooperative, they die off. It's a very simple rule that nature operates under.

These are the animals that are the reason why you don't see old animals in the wild. You don't see sick animals in the wild. You don't see lame animals in the wild, and its all because of the predator: the lion, the tiger, the leopard, all the cats.

The fast fish, not the big fish, eats the small fish.

Nature does nothing in vain.

Big fish eat little fish.

Life lives on life - it is cruel, but it is God's will. And it is for our good, of course, because if there weren't little animals to eat up the young mussels, our canals would be choked by those shellfish, for each mother has more than a thousand young ones at a time!

The strong were always eating the weak.

Man and the animals are merely a passage and channel for food, a tomb for other animals, a haven for the dead, giving life by the death of others, a coffer full of corruption.

Weak dogs become bones for other, stronger dogs.

Unfortunately, most people never observe the natural cycle of birth and death. They do not realize that for one living thing to survive, another living thing must die.
