The Burden of the Human Race

"All men are created equal, but some are more equal than others. This quote came from a book called Animal Farm. A man named George Orwell wrote it to show how you can never create a perfect world, for you shall always run into walls on the way, henceforth, made by yourself or someone you thought fair."
I remember when Ryter said this to me. It was 5 hours before the Eden police came and picked Ryter and Spaz up. I was immediately questioned by the Masters why I decided to do this for them. My answer is what I saved for court.
As I walked out "there" I saw all the perfect eyes looking down-on me. Instead of staring at me astounded of my beauty, the stared at me with hate, like I never belonged in their world before.
The words of the judges get drowned out by my thoughts, but my mind clicks when those words are no more.
"Being proovs, being that we are the smartest of anything of any other, we know that we top any other types of humans out there. We know that no other types of humans are a match for us. This isn't what we know, this is what we think."
The crowd questioned one another, confused. I went on.
"Before this happened someone told me that a book once read that all animal are created equal, yet some are more equal than others. According to this quote, we are the one who believe we are the most equal of any others!"
Most of the crowd started yelling in disbelief and disappointment. I didn't see anything to be disappointed about.
"And this person who happened to tell me this quote happens to be what we call a normal! But do you know what I call him?! I call him a human being!"
Now everyone started screaming, half of the crowd left.
"Do we honestly judge ourselves by our looks, our face, our structure? Is this what makes us perfect? I don't know! Nobody knows! Besides, what is the point of perfection?"
I left after I said my word.
