“I cannot see the short, white curls Upon the forehead of an Ox, But what I see them dripping with That poor thing's blood, and hear the ax; When I see calves and lambs, I see Them led to death; I see no bird Or rabbit cross the open field But what a sudden shot is heard; A shout that tells me men aim true, For death or wound, doth chill me through. W.H. Davies I have been studying the traits and dispositions of the "lower animals" (so called) and contrasting them with the traits and dispositions of man. I find the result humiliating to me.” MenHas BeensWhiteAnimalPoorResultsStudyHeardBloodFieldsCreaturesBirdShotsCrossesAimWoundsTraitsDispositionChillRabbitsForeheadsLambsCurlsHumiliatingDrippingCalvesOpen Fields Author:Mark Twain
“Thimerosol is the preservative in immunisation shots, so anytime you get an immunisation shot you are undergoing the same procedure that in the University Lab we used to give animals auto-immune disease---give a little tiny injection of mercury. And when you get an immunisation shot you are getting a little tiny dose of mercury there.” GivingLittlesUsedAnimalDiseaseShotsUniversityTinyProceduresImmuneDoseLabsMercuryInjectionImmunisation Author:Hal Huggins

“Talking to animals' isn't a matter of words used, it is a matter of your thoughts, your expression, and above all the tone of your voice. A harsh voice from me can make my cows jump in terror.

“I grew up around hunters. I love guns, bows, arrows, compasses and binoculars. I don't do any of that stuff, I just like the stuff. I shot one animal, in my life, and I didn't like it.

“A panda walks into a tea room and ordered a salad and ate it. Then it pulled out a pistol, shot the man in the next table dead, and walked out. Everyone rushed after it, shouting "Stop! Stop! Why did you do that?" "Becuase I am a panda," said the panda. "That's what pandas do. If you don't believe me, look in the dictionary." So they looked in the dictionary and sure enough they found Panda: Racoon-like animal of Asia. Eats shoots and leaves.” IfsMenBelieveLooksSaidEnoughNextFoundWalksAnimalRoomsHe ManShotsTablesDon't BelieveTeaBelieve In MeAsiaDictionarySaladShoutingPistolsPandas Author:Ursula K. Le Guin
“Happiness Is A Warm Gun not about heroin. A gun magazine was sitting there with a smoking gun on the cover and an article that I never read inside called 'Happiness Is a Warm Gun.'
