QUOTATIONS ARCHIVE
This Quotations Archive contains words from famous and some not so famous people who have expressed a sense of love, compassion, and respect for all of God's creation: for people, for animals, and for the environment. They speak of our teaching methods and philosophy. They speak of a lifestyle of non-violence. They seek to eliminate cruelty and suffering. They seek to wake us up. They seek to give us hope.
Saint Francis of Assisi"Not to hurt our humble brethren [the animals] is our
first duty to them, but to stop there is not enough. We have a higher
mission: to be of service to them whenever they require it."
~God's Covenant with Animals, Lantern Books, 2000, xii
"If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men."
