Quotation	"The fate of animals is of greater importance to me than the fear of appearing ridiculous; it is indissolubly connected with the fate of man." - Emile Zola �For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.� Ralph Waldo Emerson �If slaughterhouses had glass walls the whole world would be vegetarian.� Linda McCartney �All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.� -Buddha �You have just dined, and however scrupulously the slaughterhouse is concealed in the graceful distance of miles, there is complicity.� Ralph Waldo Emerson �Non-violence leads to the highest ethics, which is the goal of all evolution. Until we stop harming all other living beings, we are still savages.� Thomas A. Edison �One day the absurdity of the almost universal human belief in the slavery of other animals will be palpable. We shall then have discovered our souls and become worthier of sharing this planet with them.� Martin Luther King, Jr Some of Deepak Chopra's quotes: Every morning when we wake up, we have a choice to either open to a potential miracle and celebrate it, or to choose complaint and control. If you create any open space within yourself, love will fill it. "It takes no effort to love. The state has its own innate joy." "In the midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you." "There is a hidden meaning behind all events, and this hidden meaning is serving your own evolution." Inner silence promotes clarity of mind; it makes us value the inner world; it trains us to go inside to the source of peace and inspiration when we are faced with problems and challenges." "As long as you're giving, you will be receiving." "Relaxation is the prerequisite for that inner expansion that allows a person to express the source of inspiration and joy within." Nothing limits us except ourselves, for the truest aspect of every person is unbounded potential. Every year your physical body is completely different from the one that you had a year ago. It's completely renewed, completely changed at the cellular level. You are new-made every day. We each have a unique song to play in the music of the universe. "With spirit we are all children of the cosmos; without it we are orphaned and adrift." "Questions answer themselves if you are aware enough." "Our essential nature is one of pure potentiality.� "There are no extra pieces in the universe. Everyone is here because he or she has a place to fill, and every piece must fit itself into the big jigsaw puzzle." Just as light brightens darkness, discovering inner fulfillment can eliminate any disorder or discomfort. This is truly the key to creating balance and harmony in everything you do." "Losing touch with spirit does nothing to the field of creativity, which is beyond harm; but it can do much to damage a person's chance in life." Each of us is here to discover our true selves; that essentially we are spiritual beings who have taken manifestation in physical form; that we're not human beings that have occasional spiritual experiences, that we're spiritual beings that have occasional human experiences." Suspend your assumptions about what we call reality so that we can become pioneers in a land where youthful vigor, renewal, creativity, joy, fulfillment and timelessness are the common experience of everyday life" "Human beings are made of body, mind and spirit. Of these, spirit is primary, for it connects us to the source of everything, the eternal field of consciousness." "Love is the beginning of the journey, its end, and the journey itself." "If you can prove to yourself that you have the ability to break through the veil of ordinary reality, you can go on to do things that once seemed impossible or magical." "If you and I are having a single thought of violence or hatred against anyone in the world at this moment, we are contributing to the wounding of the world." "You cannot stand anywhere in the universe that is outside of yourself." "When you blame and criticize others, you are avoiding some truth about yourself." "Giving connects two people, the giver and the receiver, and this connection gives birth to a new sense of belonging." "The physical world, including our bodies, is a response of the observer. We create our bodies as we create the experience of our world."
