7. "This century will be such a shame with our species choking the hell out of the rest of the lifes."

Our arrogance & lack of empathy is stunning. We have no right to call ourselves human.

In David Brin's Uplift series, the human race, the 'wolfling race,' fears that the galactic order will find out how many species we callously wiped out in our earlier history.
