“It was all in the family for a while. Then we started leasing animals because everyone in the family was out of 4-H, ... We hung in there with nine 4-H'ers for a while. Now we have 12. And we brought 16 llamas to the fair - the most ever.”
Amanda Hill
“Animals are my friends, and I don't eat my friends”
George Bernard Shaw
“Animals have these advantages over man: they never hear the clock strike, they die without any idea of death, they have no theologians to instruct them, their last moments are not disturbed by unwelcome and unpleasant ceremonies, their funerals cost”
Voltaire
“It is difficult to obtain the friendship of a cat. It is a philosophical animal...one that does not place its affections thoughtlessly.”
Theophile Gautier
“Love is an alliance of friendship and animalism; if the former predominates it is passion exalted and refined; if the latter, gross and sensual.”
Charles Caleb Colton
“The basis of all animal rights should be the Golden Rule: we should treat them as we would wish them to treat us, were any other species in our dominant position.”
Christine Stevens
“Man, when perfected, is the best of animals, but when separated from law and justice, he is the worst of all.”
Aristotle
