Saving one animal won't change the world,

but it will change the world for that one animal.

You can tell a lot about people

by the way they treat their pets.

Frank Sonnenberg

Although I can't stop all cruelty to living

creatures on the planet, I can be kinder

to every living creature in my life.

River Phoenix

It is more important to prevent suffering,

rather than sit to contemplate the evils

of the universe.

Buddha

Dogs love their friends and bite their enemies,

quite unlike people, who are incapable of pure

love and always have to mix love and hate.

Sigmund Freud

If we could live happy and healthy lives

without harming others, why wouldn't we?

Pam Ahern

Love all. Serve all. Help ever. Hurt never.

Sathya Sai Baba

Create all the happiness you are able to create;

remove all the misery you are able to remove.

Every day will allow you, will invite you to

add something to the pleasure of others,

or to diminish something of their pains.

Jeremy Bentham

I marvelled at how two souls - two completely

different species - could make each other

so happy. If you were kind to animals,

they repaid that kindness thousandfold.

People disappointed; animals never did.

Alan Brennert

When a man loves cats, I am his friend and

comrade without further introduction.

Mark Twain

The beauty you see in me is a reflection of you.

Rumi

To know even one life has breathed easier

because you have lived. This is

to have succeeded.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

We can judge the heart of a man

by his treatment of animals.

Immanuel Kant

The more I learn about people,

the more I like my dog.

Mark Twain

Dogs are our link to paradise.

Milan Kundera

 A woman is the full circle.

Within her is the power to create,

nurture and transform.

Diane Mariechild

There is no happiness like that of being loved

by your fellow-creatures, and feeling that

your presence is an addition to their comfort.

Charlotte Brontë

To heal is to touch with love that

which we previously touched with fear.

Stephen Levine

The heart of a good man is

the sanctuary of God in this world.

Suzanne Curchod

Until one has loved an animal a part

of one's soul remains unawakened.

Anatole France

The dog is between the child and the angel

in terms of mentality, heart and feeling.

Anthony of Curtis

God's Creatures 🐄🐑🦃🐓🐠🐖

Earth was created for all of us, not some of us.

Anthony Douglas Williams

It may be suggested by some books that it is not

a sin to kill an animal, but it is written in our

own hearts - more clearly than in any book -

that we should take pity on animals

in the same way as we do on humans.

Leo Tolstoy

For if animals are God's creatures, we have no

absolute rights over them, only the duty to look

after them as God would look after them.

To stand with Jesus is to reject our view of

ourselves as gods and lords of creation. We are

to honor life for the sake of the Lord of the life.

Andrew Linzey

We have enslaved the rest of the animal creation,

and have treated our distant cousins in fur

and feathers so badly that beyond doubt,

if they were able to formulate a religion,

they would depict the Devil in human form.

William Ralph Inge

If God condones what we do to animals -

then what does the Devil do?

Gary Yourofsky

The Gods created certain kinds of beings

to replenish our bodies; they are the trees

and the plants and the seeds.

Plato

Why should man expect his prayer for mercy

to be heard by what is above him when he

shows no mercy to those under his power?

Pierre Troubetzkoy

Where love is, there God is also.

Mahatma Gandhi

'Thou shall not kill' does not apply to murder of

one's own kind only, but to all living beings;

and this Commandment was inscribed in

the human heart long before it was

proclaimed from Sinai.

Leo Tolstoy

There is no religion without love, and people may

talk as much as they like about their religion,

but if it does not teach them to be kind

to man and animals, it is all a sham.

Anna Sewell

I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians.

Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.

Mahatma Gandhi

The basis of all animal rights should be

the Golden Rule: we should treat them as we

would wish them to treat us, were any

other species in our dominant position.

Christine Stevens

It ill becomes us to invoke in our daily prayers

the blessings of God, the Compassionate,

if we in turn will not practice elemantary

compassion toward our fellow creatures.

Mahatma Gandhi

No God would be a slave master,

a torturer and a killer of his animals, his babies.

If he was, then he would not be God.

He would be the Devil.

Gary Yourofsky

Those who are merciful will be shown mercy

by the Most Merciful. Be merciful to those

on the earth and the One in the heavens

will have mercy on you.

Mishkat al-Masabih: Book 6, Chapter 7, 8:178

My religion is based on truth and non-violence.

Truth is my God. Non-violence is

the means of realising him.

Mahatma Gandhi

Man worships an invisible God

and destroys a visible Nature.

Unaware that this Nature he's destroying

is this God he's worshiping.

Hubert Reeves

Be kind to all creatures.

This is the true religion.

Buddha
