Thus they let their anger and fury take from them the sense of humanity, and demonstrated that no beast is more savage than man when possessed with power answerable to his rage.
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
The passage says that when anger and fury take over, people lose their sense of humanity. It goes on to claim that no animal is more savage than a human being who has the power to carry out what rage demands, making cruelty a human specialty rather than a bestial one.
