If possessing a higher degree of intelligence
does not entitle one human to use another
for his or her own ends, how can it entitle
humans to exploit non-humans?
Peter Singer
The question is not, "Can they reason?"
nor "Can they talk?" but, "Can they suffer?"
Jeremy Bentham
Our grandchildren will ask us one day:
Where were you during the Holocaust
of the animals? What did you do against
those horrifying crimes? We won't be
able to offer the same excuse for
the second time, that we didn't know.
Helmut Kaplan
If God condones what we do to animals,
then what does the Devil do?
Gary Yourofsky
