A West Side garment executive is suing a fellow tenant in a luxury condominium building after the neighbor’s pit bull “ripped off” part of the man’s mouth in the building elevator .
Alan Johnson, 47, claims the neighbor, Narayan Raj, 37, knew of the dog’s propensity to be violent but encouraged Johnson anyway to pet the animal in the elevator of 555 W. 59 St in in May 2011, according to Manhattan Supreme Court papers.
Johnson’s lawyer, Howard Strongin, said that after the dog “ripped off part of (Johnson’s) mouth,” his client required surgery on his upper lip, and in addition to being disfigured, he still has “an impaired ability to smile.”

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
