Be reverent before the dawning day. Do not think of what will be in a year, or in ten years. Think of to-day.
Romain RollandThousands of animals (now billions) are butchered every day without a shadow of remorse. It cries vengeance upon all the human race.
Romain RollandTo a man whose mind is free there is something even more intolerable in the sufferings of animals than in the sufferings of man. For with the latter it is at least admitted that suffering is evil and that the man who causes it is a criminal. But thousands of animals are uselessly butchered every day without a shadow of remorse. If any man were to refer to it, he would be thought ridiculous. And that is the unpardonable crime.
