把这一句，留给此刻的你

There is a better reason for studying zoology than its possible ‘usefulness’, and the general likeableness of animals. This reason is that we animals are the most complicated and perfectly designed pieces of machinery in the known universe. Put it like that, and it is hard to see why anybody studies anything else!

研究动物学有一个比它可能的“有用性”和动物的普遍可爱性更好的理由。这是因为我们动物是已知宇宙中最复杂、设计最完美的机器。这么说吧，很难理解为什么有人要学习其他东西!
