Opening monologue: Meredith Grey
We like to think that we are rational beings.
Humane, conscientious, civilized, thoughtful..
But when things fall apart, even just a little, it becomes clear.
We're no better than animals.
We have opposable thumbs, we think, we walk erect, we speak,
we drink, but deep down we're all still rooting around in the primordial ooze.
Biting, clawing, scratching out an existence in the cold, dark world like the tree toads and sloths.
Closing monologue: Meredith Grey
There's a little animal in all of us.
And maybe that's something to celebrate.
Our animal instinct is what makes us seek comfort, warmth, a pack to run with.
We may feel caged, we may feel trapped.
But still as humans we still can find ways to feel free.
We are each others keepers.
We are the guardians of our own humanity.
And even though there's a beast inside all of us..
What sets us apart from the animals is that we can:
think, feel, dream, and love.
And against all odds, against all instinct...
we evolve.
