"To 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.
