“The aim of life was meat. Life itself was meat. Life lived on life. There were the eaters and the eaten. The law was: Eat or Be Eaten. He (White Fang) did not formulate the law in clear, set terms and moralize about it. He did not even think the law; he merely lived the law without thinking about it at all. The world was a place wherein ranged a multitude of appetites, pursuing and being pursued, hunting and being hunted, eating and being eaten, all in blindness and confusion, with violence and disorder, a chaos of gluttony and slaughter, ruled over by chance, merciless, planless, endless."
