More quotes by Bette Ford
It's almost impossible to imagine bullfighting abolished from Spain entirely. Values do change, though.
Bette Ford
I never took pleasure in seeing a bull die. Relief, but certainly not pleasure.
Bette Ford
If you fear something, walk into it.
Bette Ford
My own experience has taught me not to underestimate the power of those who protest against cruelty. I'd also say that there may be a tendency to view the animal-rights opposition in somewhat distorted fashion as a new development, as the product of a very recent enlightenment about the rights due to animals.
Bette Ford
Animals are complicated and so is the animal-rights opposition. It's hard to read motives in animals, and hard to read motives in politics.
Bette Ford
One of the things I've been thinking about lately is how the change in values makes the survival of the old values, where they do survive, all the more striking. There are pockets of the old bullfighting world that exist more or less intact, both in Spain and elsewhere.
Bette Ford
A bull will try to outwit you. It will stop and hook when the last thing you expect from it is that it will stop and hook.
Bette Ford
In one era the majority puts its faith and sympathy with the bullfighter, in another with the bull.
Bette Ford

Bette Ford
