What's the Difference between People and Animals?

Following its instints, and animal may choose an apple and either eat it or manipulate it. But that is not a sign of the animal's wisdom. Is the animal able to study the apple and wonder how it came to be so beautifully wrapped and so well structured with seeds inside? Is the animal able to see that there exists in the apple all the information needed on hos to produce another apple tree? These things occur to the interlligent mind and that's what makes man superior to animals. -- Ohr Avigdor Shaar Bechina
