Shelley Morrison famous quotes

Last updated: Sep 5, 2024

  • Chum was a British boy's weekly which, at the end of the year was bound into a single huge book; and the following Christmas parents bought it as Christmas presents for male children.

  • Elderly gentlemen, gentle in all respects, kind to animals, beloved by children, and fond of music, are found in lonely corners of the downs, hacking at sandpits or tussocks of grass, and muttering in a blind, ungovernable fury elaborate maledictions which could not be extracted from them by robbery or murder. Men who would face torture without a word become blasphemous at the short fourteenth. It is clear that the game of golf may well be included in that category of intolerable provocations which may legally excuse or mitigate behavior not otherwise excusable.

  • To be nonviolent to human beings and to be a killer or enemy of the poor animals is Satan's philosophy. In this age there is always enmity against poor animals, and therefore the poor creatures are always anxious. The reaction of the poor animals is being forced on human society, and therefore there is always strain of cold or hot war between men, individually, collectively or nationally.

  • Animals play a big part in my life, on tour or at home.

  • I could not have slept tonight if I had left that helpless little creature to perish on the ground.

  • Man is not the only animal who labors; but he is the only one who improves his workmanship.

  • We need a way of life in which the animal, guided by reason, may romp but will not bite.

  • Ecology more important than saving animals from slavery??? Humans suffer the raping of the earth but animals suffer DOUBLY: the raping of the earth PLUS their own raping by humans. They are innocent/they are not the ones who raped the earth/they enrich it for us all from the tiniest microscopic beings to the largest ones.

  • Sometimes losing a pet is more painful than losing a human because in the case of the pet, you were not pretending to love it.

  • The reason domestic pets are so lovable and so helpful to us is because they enjoy, quietly and placidly, the present moment.
