“To be 'for animals' is not to be 'against humanity.' To require others to treat animals justly, as their rights require, is not to ask for anything more nor less in their case than in the case of any human to whom just treatment is due.

“The time will come when men such as I will look upon the murder of animals as they now look on the murder of men.”
