"The fact that man knows right from wrong proves his intellectual superiority to the other creatures; but the fact that he can do wrong proves his moral inferiority to any creature that cannot." (Mark Twain)

“THE GREATNESS OF A NATION AND ITS MORAL PROGRESS CAN BE JUDGED BY THE WAY ITS ANIMALS ARE BEING TREATED” (Ghandi)
In other words: LIFE IS ALL ABOUT DIGNITY, CIVILIZATION & RESPECT!!

“Man can no longer live for himself alone. We must realize that all life is valuable and that we are united to all life. From this knowledge comes our spiritual relationship with the universe.” (Albert Schweitzer)

“The more we care for the happiness of others, the greater our own sense of well-being becomes” (Dalai Lama)

"The assumption that animals are without rights and the illusion that our treatment of them has no moral significance and is an outrageous example of Western crudity and barbarity. Universal compassion is the only guarantee of morality."
"Compassion for animals is intimately associated with goodness of character, and it may be confidently asserted that he who is cruel to living creatures cannot be a good man." (Arthur Schopenhauer, German philosopher /1788 - 1860)

Well, what reasonable excuse could you still have, after having read this??!!
