If my father had a heart attack it would give me no solace at all to know his treatment was first tried on a dog.

It is only human supremacy, which is as unacceptable as racism and sexism, that makes us afraid of being more inclusive.

If that hideousness came here, it wouldn't be any more hideous for the animals — they are all bound for a ghastly death anyway. But it would wake up consumers... I openly hope that it comes here.

It would be good for animals, good for human health and good for the environment.

Ninety-five percent of the eggs produced in America come from factory-farmed birds. Even if free-range farms were hugely more humane, the sheer number of animals raised to satisfy people's desire for eggs, meat, and milk makes it impossible for us to raise them all on small, free-range farms.

Euthanasia is the kindest gift to a dog or cat unwanted and unloved.

Elephants have the largest brains of any mammal on the face of the Earth. They are creative, altruistic and kind.
