Animals in Entertainment

Man is the cruelest animal. At tragedies,

bullfights, and crucifixions he has

so far felt best on Earth; and

when he invented hell for himself,

behold, that was his very heaven.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Jo Frederiks

Tradition will accustom people to any atrocity.

of compassion that marine parks are nothing

more than concrete prisons.

A good heart will refuse the happiness

built on the misfortune of others.

If you want to know where you would have

stood on slavery before the Civil War,

don't look at where you stand on slavery today.

What an amount of suffering and cruel

punishment the poor creatures have to

endure in order to give a few moments

of pleasure to men devoid of thought.

Albert Schweitzer

We cannot have peace among men whose hearts

delight in killing any living creature. By every

act that glorifies or even tolerates such

moronic delight, we set back

the progress of humanity.

Rachel Carson

Once we accept this view of animals - as our

resources - the rest is as predictable

as it is regrettable.

We know we cannot be kind to animals

until we stop exploiting them -

exploiting animals in the name of science,

exploiting animals in the name of sport,

exploiting animals in the name of fashion,

and yes, exploiting animals in the name of food.

Audrey Hepburn

Right now you may not be where you intended

to be, but it's where you need to be in order

to get where you want to go.

The most we can hope for is to create

the best possible conditions for success,

then let go of the outcome.

The ride is a lot more fun that way.

We are disturbed not by what happens to us,

but by our thoughts about what happens to us.

Epictetus

What you want is deliberately placed

out of reach so that you can become

The same wall that keeps out your

People grow when they are loved well.

If you want to help others heal,

love them without an agenda.

of your actions, but if you do nothing,

there will be no results.

because they follow the path of least resistence.

Success is not final, failure is not fatal:

it is the courage to continue that counts.
