Of Mice and Men

When a mouse meets an obstacle it will first try to chew through, even if it could move the obstacle. When a human meets an obstacle they will first try to move it, even if they could chew through it. That’s the only important difference; mice and humans both poke their noses into everything, eat whatever they want, breed like crazy, and live for the moment.
