![“[A wasp] was sucking jam on my plate, and I cut him in half. He paid no attention, merely went on with his meal, while a tiny stream of jam trickled out of his severed esophagus. Only when he tried to fly away did he grasp the dreadful thing that had happened to him.” quote by George Orwell](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/5e6/george-orwell-57_quote_a-wasp-was-sucking-jam-on-my-plate-and-i_966758.jpg)
