This is the point the wise reach, and they call it the culmination of wisdom.

Foxes may be furrier and sexier than rats, but they are still vermin, and need to be controlled and killed. When I consider all the different methods of killing foxes, my view, backed up by Lord Burns, is that hunting with hounds is the most natural way to kill them .

To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.
