There Are Many Animal-welfare Groups That Sometimes

People Say To Me So Often, 'jane How Can You Be So Peaceful When Everywhere Around You People Want Books Signed, People Are Asking These Questions And Yet You Seem Peaceful,' And I Always Answer That It Is The Peace Of The Forest That I Carry Inside.

Today It Is Generally Accepted That Although The Earliest Humans Probably Ate Some Meat, It Was Unlikely To Have Played A Major Role In Their Diet. Plants Would Have Been A Much More Important Source Of Food.

It Made Me Feel Particularly Sickened To Know That This Kind Of Callous Attitude Toward Animals Is Repeated Again And Again In Laboratories Around This Country.

Cultural Speciation Had Been Crippling To Human Moral And Spiritual Growth. It Had Hindered Freedom Of Thought, Limited Our Thinking, Imprisoned Us In The Cultures Into Which We Had Been Born. . . . These Cultural Mind Prisons. . . . Cultural Speciation Was Clearly A Barrier To World Peace. So Long As We Continued To Attach More Importance To Our Own Narrow Group Membership Than To The ‘global Village’ We Would Propagate Prejudice And Ignorance.

I Like Some Animals More Than Some People, Some People More Than Some Animals.
