I don't believe in religion, for I don't see that your religious people are any better than the rest.

Now I say that with cruelty and oppression it is everybody's business to interfere when they see it.

God had given men reason, by which they could find out things for themselves, but He had given animals knowledge which did not depend on reason, and which was much more prompt and perfect in its way, and by which they had often saved the lives of men.

If a thing is right it can be done, and if it is wrong it can be done without; and a good man will find a way.

Give me the handling of a horse for twenty minutes, and I'll tell you what sort of a groom he has had.

My doctrine is this, that if we see cruelty or wrong that we have the power to stop, and do nothing, we make ourselves sharers in the guilt.

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 good and kind to man and beast, it is all a sham.
