This quote by John Lewis is a thought-provoking one that can be translated in a couple of various ways. On the surface area, it is a concern about who ought to receive the reward for an effective hunt - the hunter or the pet dog. It might be analyzed as a commentary on the relationship between people and animals, and how we typically take credit for the work of others. It might likewise be analyzed as a metaphor for the unequal distribution of resources in society, with the hunter representing those in power and the pet representing those who do the work but do not get the recognition or benefit. Eventually, this quote is a pointer that we should bear in mind who we provide credit to and who we reward for their hard work.
"I think I was first awakened to musical exploration by Dizzy Gillespie and Bird. It was through their work that I began to learn about musical structures and the more theoretical aspects of music"
"There are joys which long to be ours. God sends ten thousands truths, which come about us like birds seeking inlet; but we are shut up to them, and so they bring us nothing, but sit and sing awhile upon the roof, and then fly away"
"The white men in the East are like birds. They are hatching out their eggs every year, and there is not room enough in the East, and they must go elsewhere; and they come out West, as you have seen them coming for the last few years"
