Animal experimentation is the blackest of all the black crimes that a man is at present committing... We should be able to refuse to live if the price of living be the torture of sentient beings... I abhor [animal] experimentation with my whole soul. All the scientific discoveries stained with innocent blood I count as of no consequence... The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.

Mahatma GandhiTo slight a single human being, is to slight those divine powers and thus to harm not only that being but with him, the whole world.
Mahatma GandhiSome form of common worship and a common place of worship appear to be a human necessity.
