Dinosaur

Why kids are crazy about dinosaurs—dinosaurs are nature's special effects. They are the only real dragons. It's not just being weirdly shaped and being able to eat Buicks. It's that they are real.

—Robert T. Bakker

Dinosaurs are not extinct—they live on in the feathers of birds and the imagination of anyone who has ever stared into the eyes of a lizard.

"God creates dinosaurs. God kills dinosaurs. God creates man. Man kills God. Man brings back dinosaurs."

The reality is you either step into the future, or you become a dinosaur.
