In times of peace they lie latent, like volcanoes. When violence breaks out they are activated and devour anything that comes their way.
"The sombre fact is that we are the cruellest and most ruthless species that has ever walked this earth; and that, although we may recoil in horror when we read in the newspapers or history books of the atrocities committed by man upon man, we know in our hearts that each one of us harbours within himself those same savage impulses which lead to murder, to torture and to war."

Anthony Storr - Human Aggression (1968)
