Summary

This quote highlights how the absence of something, whether physical or symbolic, can often have a greater impact on our perception and awareness than its presence. Just as a missing tooth in a smile draws immediate attention, the lack of someone or something can leave a noticeable void that can't be easily overlooked. It reminds us how absences leave a lasting impression and how their absence can serve as a constant reminder of what is no longer there.

We cut the throat of a calf and hang it up by the heels to bleed to death so that our veal cutlet may be white; we nail geese to a board and cram them with food because we like the taste of liver disease; we tear birds to pieces to decorate our women's hats; we mutilate domestic animals for no reason at all except to follow an instinctively cruel fashion; and we connive at the most abominable tortures in the hope of discovering some magical cure for our own diseases by them.
