Ask now the beasts and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall teach thee. Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee, and the fishes of the earth shall declare unto thee. Who knoweth not that in all these that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this? In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind?
— The Bible (Job 12:7-10) , The Boundless Circle by Michael W. Fox
