Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one that inflicts pain for the pleasure of doing it.
— Mark Twain
Next Quote
Until we have courage to recognize cruelty for what it is - whether its victim is human or animal - we cannot expect things to be much better in the world. There can be no double standard. We cannot have peace among men whose hearts find delight in killing any living creature. By every act that glorifies or even tolerates such moronic delight in killing, we set back the progress of humanity.
— Rachel Carson
