What Kind Of Human Evil Would Do A Job Where They Murder Animals Every Day?

A dog’s cold snout is delightfully warm against the callousness of some fellow humans.
( Ernst R. Hauschka )

So far as animals are concerned the Tories are the nastiest party the country’s ever seen.
One of our defining characteristics used to be our love of animals.
Now it looks like we are in danger of electing a party that is for elephant poaching, fox hunting and the use of wild animals in circuses.  I despair.
( Peter Egan )

Leaving dogs in our cars on hot days is cruel and illegal.
But for millions of ‘farm’ animals transported to the slaughterhouse every day, this is accepted practise.

Every animal on a factory farm is treated in a way that would be considered illegal if done to a dog or a cat.
( The New York Times )

Chewing gum thrown on the ground looks like bread to birds, which try and eat it.
It fouls their entire systems and prevents them ingesting any real nourishment or water.
So they die slowly.
( Dion Felsrow )

How can people spend Christmas talking of ‘peace on earth’ and ‘love’ and then sit down to devour someone who never knew peace or love?

From animal murder to human murder is only one step, and so is from animal cruelty to human cruelty.
( Leo Tolstoy )

When I am feeling low all I have to do is watch my cats and my courage returns.
( Charles Bukowski )

It’s easy to argue against being a vegan if you’re not the one being abused and having your throat cut.

Are they not worthy of life, and you think you are?
( Rose Winfold )

If animals go into slaughterhouses alive and come out chopped up into hundreds of pieces, how could anyone claim that they aren’t being mistreated, abused, tortured and terrorised?
( Gary Yourofsky )

If someone deliberately harms an animal in any way, that person has demonstrated the mental capacity for violence.
You cannot assume that the violence will stop there.

It makes no sense to go through an animal to get to the nutrients that the animal gets because the animal ate plants.
( Colleen Patrick-Goudreau )

For the sake of a mouthful of flesh, we deprive a soul of the life it had been born into the world to enjoy.
( Plutarch )

Believing that a loving God condones the way we treat animals is pretty stupid.

Owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are God.
Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realise that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are gods.
( Christopher Hitchens )

Only a small, weak man gets pleasure in hurting and killing defenceless creatures.
It makes him feel big and strong, and makes him forget for a while that he’s a coward.

Most people are not accustomed to worry about suffering when it’s other than human suffering.
Most people think nothing of the unnecessary mass abuse and brutal killing of animals.
The basic unassailable principal allows us to take animals and do just about whatever we want with them.
That they are property, not free to live their life, here to serve the arrogant, greedy human species.
( Wilfred Soon )

Beware of the mentally-deranged thugs who abuse and hurt and torture and kill defenceless animals.
They are very likely to do the same to you, and your family, and your friends.

Animals flee from man because they can no longer recognise God’s image in them.
( Manfred Kyber )

In a world where even humans are treated brutally, it’s no wonder that so many animals live their entire life trembling with fear.
( Rose Winfold )

Not content in just invading their homeland, they murder the indigenous kangaroos solely for financial gain.
The greatest slaughter of wildlife land animals on the planet.
The government of Australia and the killers they support can’t sink any lower, can they?

A dog reflects the family life.
Whoever saw a frisky dog in a gloomy family, or a sad dog in a happy one?
Snarling people have snarling dogs, dangerous people have dangerous ones.
( Arthur Conan Doyle )

How can we claim to be a good, moral, civilised society when we feast on the corpses of gentle, defenceless animals?

Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen.
( Orhan Pamuk )

The oppression of animals is the gateway drug to oppressing humans.
( Dr. Alex Hershaft )

We cannot eat the flesh of dead animals and still expect to feel alive.

Dogs are the leaders of the planet.
If you see two life forms, one of them’s making a poop, the other one’s carrying it for him, who would you assume is in charge?
( Jerry Seinfeld )

We will not be able to make up in eternity what we have done to the animals.
( Mark Twain )

It’s a cruel and unforgiving world for those who cannot speak.
We are blessed with a voice.
We must use our voice and speak for them.

Destruction of Nature, and Nature’s resources, result from ignorance, greed, and lack of respect for the Earth’s living things.
( Dalai Lama )

You always fed strays and bent down to talk to the dogs you met on the street, looking straight into their eyes as if they were old friends.
You liked to go to the pound and look at them.
You tried to send them messages of comfort.
I couldn’t go because I started crying the one time I tried.
All those eyes and the barks like sobs.
( Francesca Lia Block )

We are alone on this chance planet.
And amid all the wonderful forms of life that surround us, not one has been free from our interference, cruelty, persecution, or exploitation.

Thousands of people who say they love animals sit down once or twice a day to enjoy the flesh of creatures who have been utterly deprived of everything that could make their lives worth living and who endured the awful suffering and the terror of the abattoirs.
( Jane Goodall )

Cruelty to animals is one of the most significant vices of a low and ignoble people.
Wherever one notices them, they constitute a sign of ignorance and brutality which cannot be painted over even by all the evidence of wealth and luxury.
( Alexander von Humboldt )

What kind of human evil would do a job where they murder animals every day?

No matter how close we are to another person, few human relationships are as free from strife, disagreement, and frustration as is the relationship you have with a good dog.
Few human beings give of themselves to another as a dog gives of itself.
I also suspect that we cherish dogs because their unblemished souls make us wish, consciously or unconsciously, that we were as innocent as they are, and make us yearn for a place where innocence is universal and where the meanness, the betrayals, and the cruelties of this world are unknown.
( Dean Koontz )

Have no doubt.
Anyone that abuses or hurts animals WILL abuse and hurt your child, and you.

Because I’m a civil rights activist, I am also an animal rights activist. Animals and humans suffer and die alike.
Violence causes the same pain, the same spilling of blood, the same stench of death, the same arrogant, cruel and vicious taking of life.
We shouldn’t be a part of it.
( Dick Gregory )

When you go vegan it feels like a weight is lifted that you didn’t know you had.

The real difficulty in being vegan doesn’t involve food.
The hardest part about being vegan is coming face-to-face with the darker side of humanity and trying to remain hopeful.
It’s trying to understand why otherwise good and caring people continue to participate in needless violence against animals – just for the sake of their own pleasure or convenience.
( Jo Tyler )
