Le tout, paraît-il, pour assurer la reproduction, donc la survie de l'espèce. Mais dans ce cas, pourquoi être obligé de vivre en couple, toute sa vie ? Se reproduire ne prend pas autant de temps.

We are a people of stories. We use them to entertain, to teach, and to instruct. Sometimes they warn us of the dangers of wandering too far into the woods, or they can be a detailed story to explain how magnificent landscapes came to be. Story has always been the way we pass time, the way we connect to each other, and most importantly, how we promote our values. Parables, especially, have a dual purpose. Not only do they keep us entertained, but they also make a point. Consider Aesop’s fables—tales of talking animals who learn valuable life lessons.

Sans dessus dessous est un roman d'anticipation de Jules Verne, paru en 18891, dans lequel certains personnages de De la Terre à la Lune réapparaissent. Comme dans plusieurs romans publiés à la fin de sa vie (notamment Face au drapeau, Les Cinq Cents Millions de la Bégum ou La Chasse au météore), Jules Verne, tout en conservant le ton scientifique dont il use ordinairement dans ses Voyages extraordinaires, dénonce les excès d'une vision scientiste et rationnelle du monde, en usant d'un ton fortement teinté d'ironie envers ses héros.
