- "From the talking rings, I learned how the human race divided itself and how the world of the Eloi and the Morlocks began. By some awful quirk of fate, the Morlocks had become the masters and the Eloi their servants. The Morlocks maintain them and bred them like cattle only to take them below when they reached maturity, which explained why there were no older people among them."
- ― H. George Wells (The Time Machine 1960 film)
