I am never afraid of what I know.

We call them dumb animals, and so they are, for they cannot tell us how they feel, but they do not suffer less because they have no words.

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

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.

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.

Why don't they cut their own children's ears into points to make them look sharp? Why don't they cut off their noses to make them look plucky? One would be just as sensible as the other. What right have they to torment and disfigure God's creatures?

What right had they to make me suffer like that?
