00:00Are you afraid of the world to come?
00:02Yes, it's tragic.
00:05Is it a world of even greater solitude for you?
00:09Yes, I think so.
00:12I don't envision the future.
00:15It's unthinkable.
00:18The proliferation of the human being,
00:22which is worse than that of the rat,
00:25is appalling.
00:27Don't animals change?
00:29Animals are wonderful because they are in direct contact with nature.
00:35What could have saved humanity is perhaps the woman,
00:38because she is still in contact with nature.
00:41She escapes the laws,
00:45the absurdities emitted by the abnormal.
00:51She is still in contact with nature, but she has no voice in the chapter.
00:54What about animals?
00:56Animals will soon disappear.
00:59In Africa, it's a permanent hecatomb.
01:02When I came here, I had about thirty hyrundale nests.
01:07Last year, I had two hyrundales,
01:09and for the first time I picked up a hyrundale that had fallen from its nest,
01:12which was so poorly fed,
01:15thanks to the progress of science,
01:18the chemical science,
01:20which kills the earth, the insect, the bird,
01:25which kills all life, which assassinates man.
01:27Maybe we'll see too much of it.
