The Fountainhead · 1943
We are all brothers under the skin-and I, for one, would be willing to skin humanity to prove it.

The speaker takes the familiar idea that everyone is a sibling beneath the surface and gives it a grisly twist. Willing to skin humanity to prove it, the speaker treats kinship as a literal claim about flesh, turning a comforting saying into a gruesome declaration.
