Fainthearted animals move about in herds. The lion walks alone in the desert. Let the poet always walk thus.
Alfred de Vigny
Image
Animals are reliable, many full of love, true in their affections, predictable in their actions, grateful and loyal. Difficult standards for people to live up to.
Alfred Armand Montapert
Image
I actually quite like working with kids and I like working with animals, which everybody says you shouldn't do. It makes you feel like you're not acting, as soon as you have someone who's providing stuff to react to.
Robert Pattinson
Image
Politics is the best show in America. I love animals and I love politicians, and I like to watch both of 'em at play, either back home in their native state, or after they've been captured and sent to a zoo, or to Washington.
Will Rogers
Image
Now, knowing better, we can act better, we can live better, and give the animals, our children and ourselves a true reason for hope and celebration.
Will Tuttle
Image
The line we draw between animals that are socially acceptable and those we find repugnant can be awfully arbitrary.
Alexandra Harney
Image
Man, the most complicated of the animals, has a relatively short gestation period. Beyond that, he will be born, unlike most mammals, in a ridiculously helpless state.
Willard Gaylin
Image
She told them simply and directly that the meadow was a place of peace and beauty, where indeed if one came to it in a quiet manner, the animals would not be disturbed for there are lovely birds, and squirrels and field mice, and sometimes deer.
Kathryn Lasky
Image
The Angels of (Mercy) do not enter a house in which there are pictures (of animals).
Muhammad al-Bukhari
Image
But it is the knowledge of necessary and eternal truths which distinguishes us from mere animals, and gives us reason and the sciences, raising us to knowledge of ourselves and God. It is this in us which we call the rational soul or mind.
Gottfried Leibniz
Image
Cruelty to animals is one of the most significant vices of a low and ignoble people. Wherever one notices them, they constitute a sign of ignorance and brutality which cannot be painted over even by all the evidence of wealth and luxury.
Alexander von Humboldt
Image
Nothing can be more shocking and horrid than one of our kitchens sprinkled with blood, and abounding with the cries of expiring victims or with the limbs of dead animals scattered or hung up here and there.
Alexander Pope
Image
Animals fascinate me because you can find a force, an energy, a fear that also exists in sex.
Alexander McQueen
Image
When we kill animals to eat them they end up killing us because their flesh...was never intended for human beings, who are naturally herbivores.
William C. Roberts
Image
A food waste reduction hierarchy-feeding people first, then animals, then recycling, then composting-serves to show how productive use can be made of much of the excess food that is currently contributing to leachate and methane formation in landfills.
Carol Browner
Image
Spain and southern Italy, in which Catholicism has most deeply implanted its roots, are even now, probably beyond all other countries in Europe, those in which inhumanity to animals is most wanton and unrebuked.
William Edward Hartpole Lecky
Image
Other animals, in a constant and mostly unmediated relation with their sensory surroundings, think with the whole of their bodies.
David Abram
Image
I wish that the circuses that were around now felt like they did then. They're not quite as elegant or as magical as they used to be. There was something about the old tent shows, the Big Top, the canvas, the lights, the sawdust, the hay and the animals that's just missing now. Now, it's all urbanized and maybe a little garish.
Francis Lawrence
Image
To attribute rights to animals is to ignore the purpose and justification of rights - to protect the interests of man.
Alex Epstein
Image
Nicholas wanted to believe in fairy tales. She'd read her share, hoping for miracles, but in the end, there was no hundred acre wood to play in with her little stuffed animals. There was pain and crushing disillusionment and betrayal.
Christine Feehan
Image
People didn't make life, so they can't destroy it. Even if we were to wipe out every bit of life in the world, we can't touch the place life comes from. Whatever made the plants and animals and people spring up in the first place will always be there, and life will spring up again.
Jeanne DuPrau
Image
What are we? Humans? Or animals? Or savages?
William Golding
Image
The ways in which people treat animals will be reflected in how people relate to one another.
William Greider
Image
The heart of animals is the foundation of their life, the sovereign of everything within them, the sun of their microcosm, that upon which all growth depends, from which all power proceeds.
William Harvey
