There is no religion without love,
and people may talk as much as they like
about their religion,
but if it does not teach them
to be good and kind to other animals
as well as humans, it is all a sham.

-Anna Sewell, writer (1820-1878)

Civilization is the encouragement of differences.

 -Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"The old Lakota was wise.

He knew that man's heart away from nature becomes hard;

he knew that lack of respect for growing, living thing

soon led to lack of respect for humans, too."

- Luther Bear, Native American.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A time will come when a politician who has wilfully made war
and promoted international dissension
will be as sure of the dock and much surer of the noose
than a private homicide.
It is not reasonable that those who gamble with men's lives
should not stake their own.

-H.G. Wells, writer (1866-1946)
