It
would be better for them not to be sentient, Holloway thought. Just because they were sentient wouldn’t be a
guarantee they’d be recognized as such.
Not when so many people had such a vested interest in them not being
so. Better to be a monkey and not be
able to understand what’s been taken from you, than to be a man and be able to
understand all too well – and be helpless to stop it.
