Life at the Farm
Until one loves an animal, a part of one’s soul remains unawakened.
Anatole France
Animals are such agreeable friends – they ask no questions; they pass no criticisms.
George Eliot
[Animals] may not be as intelligent as us but they certainly know pain, fear, loneliness and love. They too can suffer and they too can be happy.
Peter Singer, Animal Liberation
The love for all living creatures is the most noble attribute of man.
Charles Darwin
{Close relationships with animals} teach us not only a lot about the animal in question but also about language and about ourselves.
Eva Meijer
{Animals} are humanizing. They remind us we have an obligation and responsibility to preserve and nurture and care for all life.
James Cromwell
Animals share with us the privilege of having a soul.
Pythagoras
