I will remember what I was I am sick of rope and chain. I will remember my old strength And all of my forest affairs. I will not sell my back to man For a bundle of sugar-cane. I will go out to my own kind And the wood-folk in their lairs. I will go out until the day. Until the morning break, Out to the winds' untainted kiss, The water's clean caress. I will forget my ankle-ring And snap my picket-stake. I will revisit my lost loves And playmates, masterless.
All life is precious and valuable! Animals should be treated kindly and with respect, they should be allowed to have a good life. Man is not above animals and nature with the right to destroy and cause suffering for his own profit or pleasure.
Treat others as you would like to be treated.
Also to fight against indifference and passivity, to be the change you want to see in the world!!
What Gives Me Hope
seeing people react and act for a cause, realizing that there are so many of us who care and really want to change things
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by
I would do everything in my power to stop the destruction of nature and suffering of animals.
"I looked at all the caged animals in the shelter...the cast-offs of human society. I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness and betrayal. And I was angry. "God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?" God was silent for a moment and then He spoke softly. I have done something," He replied. "I created you."

"Take a break if you need it, we all do sometimes. Mend your broken heart however you can. Just please come back and continue the fight. They are counting on us. "(from Petfinder)
"Beneath this spot are deposited the remains of a being who is
possessed of beauty without vanity, strength without insolence, courage without ferocity
and all the virtues of man without his vices."
- The epitaph on the grave of Lord Byron's dog
"So many gods, so many creeds,
So many paths that wind and wind,
While just the art of being kind
Is all the sad world needs."
- Ella Wheeler Wilcox
"One lesson, Shepherd, let us to divide,
Taught both by what she shows and what conceals,
Never to blend our pleasure or our pride
With sorrow of the meanest thing that feels."
- William Wordsworth
"A bird in the hand is a certainty.
But a bird in the bush may sing."
- Bret Harte
