Awe and Amazement Quotes in Jurassic Park

The scene in which Grant and Sattler enter the raptor nest helps the novel keep from ending on a cynical note. For all the dangerousness of the dinosaurs and the stupidity of the humans, the animals at the park are fascinating. It's not their fault that they've been brought back from the dead; they're just doing what they do, and what nature wants them to do. Grant and Sattler cannot help but experience astonishment at the sight of raptors eager to spread their wings, so to speak.
