Man is the only animal that can remain on friendly terms with the victims he intends to eat until he eats them.–Samuel Butler
Samuel Butler was a Victorian author who published a variety of works. Two of his most famous pieces are the Utopian satire Erewhon and a semi-autobiographical novel published posthumously, The Way of All Flesh. Butler also made prose translations of The Iliad and The Odyssey which remain in use to this day.

Bad men live that they may eat and drink, whereas good men eat and drink that they may live.–Socrates, c 430 BC
Socrates was a classical Greek Athenian philosopher unlike any other, since he never wrote anything. He is credited as one of the founders of Western philosophy.
He believed in teaching people how they ought to live and how to think for themselves, and is therefore compared by many to Jesus and Buddha, even though he had no dogma as such. He was convicted and executed for irreverence toward the Greek gods.
