The animals of the world exist for their own
reasons. They were not made for humans
any more than black people were made
for white, or women created for men.
Alice Walker
I sit on a man's back, choking him and making
him carry me, and yet assure myself and others
that I am very sorry for him and wish to ease
his lot by all possible means - except
by getting off his back.
Leo Tolstoy
He who is not a good servant
will not be a good master.
Plato
If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain,
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.
Emily Dickinson
