"A dog is the only thing on earth that will love
you more than you love yourself." ~ Josh Billings
Animals are, like all living things,
self-building, self-maintaining, and self-protecting embodiments of
their genetic designs, and they are therefore in human eyes objects of
their own operations.
Wild animals never kill
for sport. Man is the only one to whom the torture and death of his
fellow creatures is amusing in itself. - JAMES ANTHONY FROUDE, Oceana
If all the beasts were
gone, men would die from a great loneliness of spirit, for whatever
happens to the beasts also happens to the man. All things are
connected.
CHIEF SEATTLE OF THE SUWAMISH TRIBE, letter to President Franklin Pierce
A. VAN GINKEL, General Principles of Human Power
- God gave unto the Animals
- A wisdom past our power to see:
- Each knows innately how to live,
- Which we must learn laboriously. - MARGARET ATWOOD, The Year of the Flood
