RE: [famous_quotes] Animals
Genesis 1:29 "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food. And to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the breath of life, I have given every green plant for food."
"In that day the wolf and the lamb will lie down together, and the leopard and goats will be at peace. Calves and fat cattle will be safe among lions, and the little child shall lead them all. The cows will graze among bears; cubs and calves will lie down together, and lions will eat grass like the cows. . . Nothing will hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain, for as the waters fill the sea, so shall the earth be full of the knowledge of the Lord." -Isaiah 11:6-10
If a man aspires towards a righteous life, his first act of abstinence is from injury to animals." -Albert Einstein
"If man wants freedom why keep birds and animals in cages? Truly man
is the king of beasts, for his brutality exceeds them. We live by the
death of others. We are burial places! I have since an early age abjured
the use of meat." -Leonardo-da-Vinci
"There is something so very dreadful, so satanic in tormenting those who have never harmed us, and who cannot defend themselves, who are utterly in our power, who have weapons neither of offence nor defense, that none but very hardened persons can endure the thought of it." -Cardinal Newman
"Flesh eating is simply immoral, as it involves the performance of an
act which is contrary to moral feeling: killing. By killing, man
suppresses in himself, unnecessarily, the highest spiritual capacity,
that of sympathy and pity towards living creatures like himself and by
violating his own feelings becomes cruel." -Leo Tolstoy
"As long as there are slaughterhouses, there will be battlefields." -Leo Tolstoy
The English country gentleman galloping after a fox - the unspeakable in full pursuit of the uneatable. Oscar Wilde
"Until he extends the circle of compassion to all living things, man will not himself find peace." -Albert Schweitzer

Interesting concept ... but animals? Can they know God?
Intellectualize why for instance taking days to die a slow
painful death in a leghold trap, for instance? Suffering in
animals is one that has always befuddled and mystified me ...
and I do seek quotes on the subject if anyone has.
