Human Animal Ethics Quotes

“If I know that a man is cruel to his Beast, I ask no more questions about him. He may be a noble man, or a rich man, or a polite man, or a sensible man, or a learned man, or an orthodox man, or a church man, or a puritan, or any thing else, it matters not; this I know, on the sacred word of a wise King, that, being cruel to his beast, he is a WICKED man.”
― Humphrey Primatt, The Duty of Mercy: A Dissertation on the Duty of Mercy and Sin of Cruelty to Brute Animals
