The greatest humans error

 A thought-provoking quote from Mark Twain.

This quote highlights the difference between the gratitude and loyalty of animals (in this case, a dog) versus humans.

The above quote suggests that:

Firstly, Animals show gratitude: A starving dog, when helped and cared for, will show loyalty and appreciation, never biting the hand that fed it.

Secondly, Humans often bite the hand that helps them. In contrast, humans may become ungrateful, resentful, or even hurtful towards those who have helped them.

Mark Twain's quote critiques human nature, implying that we often take kindness for granted, whereas animals demonstrate a more sincere and loyal response to generosity.

That's the greatest humans error. It's our intention to disrespect or disregard to the helping hands.
