“Once I showed up at my sister's with a baby rabbit I had bought from some children because its ears were cold. I put the rabbit on a hot water bottle and massaged its ears for quite a while. After all, I knew that all healthy animals had warm ears.” ChildrenWaterAnimalBabyColdHealthyEarsHotWarmBottlesMy SisterRabbitsHot WaterWater Bottles Author:Juliette Gordon Low
“The camel is an ugly animal, seen from above. Its shoulders slope formless like a sack, its silly little ears and fluff of bleached curls behind them have a respectable, boarding-house look, like some faded neatness that dresses for propriety but never dressed for love.” LooksLittlesHouseAnimalBehindsEarsDressesUglySillyShouldersRespectableFadedCurlsProprietySlopesCamelsFluffNeatnessSilly LittleBoarding House Book:A Winter in Arabia: A Journey Through Yemen Source: A Winter in Arabia: A Journey Through Yemen

“We try not to waste food in general. Because as a meat eater it's just responsible to eat as much of the animal as you can. It's also instilled in my family culture, where it's not even an ethical thing, it's just that all those parts are delicious, too. You eat the ears, you eat the intestines, you eat the livers, the hearts.” TryingHeartCultureAnimalWasteMy FamilyEarsResponsibleMeatEthicalDeliciousLiverIntestines Author:Thu Tran
“Become better listeners. Practice the art of listening in everything you do. Not just listening to yourself and your body, but listening to the people around you, listening to the plant world, the animal world. Really open your ears to what's coming at you. From there, see if you can have the ability to respond instead of react. And that usually comes with listening. If the observation and the listening are deep, then your action will be deep also.” PeopleIfsWorldArtBodyActionAbilityAnimalPracticeListeningEarsPlantYour BodyObservationListenersJust ListenAnimal World Author:Rodney Yee
