  1. Get at me when a dolphin invents a breathing apparatus to not come up for air. We can then have a serious conversation about intelligence.

  2. in the distant future, when humanity has fallen, the dolphins will evolve and replace us, then they will discover the remains of our civilization in the excavations and wonder how it is possible.

  3. It’s only when we lose it all that we will come to realize just for a few moments that we had a chance to make our own heaven. It will happen. It’s only a matter of time.

  4. i really want to spend time with these beautiful creatures ..since i live in small city in india there is no place to experience them in person sadly

  5. Dolphins bring humans close to the surface to breathe, saving their lives and humans hunt them down for meat and capture them to do tricks. This clearly indicates which species in more 'civilised' atleast in terms of morality.
