For what purpose have you prayed?””For thanks. If I must die, at least I have lived. If my companions have perished, at least I have known them. If the world is cruel, at least I have tasted kindness. I had to cross to the far side of the sky to taste it but, as you say, the world is full of miracles.

Therefore, the shape of a being does not affect the being's soul, for then something lower would inform something higher, which is impossible.
