COMPASSION FOR ALL LIVING BEINGS

EXPAND YOUR CIRCLE 

A Human Being is a Part of the Whole Called by Us Universe, a Part Limited in Time and Space. He Experiences Himself, His Thoughts and Feeling as Something Separated From the Rest, a Kind of Optical Delusion of His Consciousness. This Delusion is a Kind of Prison for Us, Restricting Us to Our Personal Desires and to Affection for a Few Persons Nearest to Us. Our Task Must Be to Free Ourselves From This Prison by Widening Our Circle of Compassion to EMBRACE ALL LIVING CREATURES and the WHOLE OF NATURE IN ITS BEAUTY. 

Albert Einstein

The Love for All Living Creatures is the Most Noble Attribute of Man. 

Charles Darwin 

Until He Extends His Circle of Compassion to Include All Living Things, Man Will Not Himself Find Peace. 

Albert Schweitzer 

I Can Do No Other Than Be Reverent Before Everything That is Called Life. I Can Do No Other Than to Have Compassion for All That is Called Life. That is the Beginning and the Foundation of All Ethics. 

Albert Schweitzer 

When Man Learns to Respect Even the Smallest Being of Creation, Whether Animal or Vegetable, No One Will Need to Teach Him to Love His Fellow. 

Albert Schweitzer 

Until One Has Loved an Animal, a Part of One’s Soul Remains Unawakened. 

Anatole France 

Animals Are My Friends...and I Don't Eat My Friends. 

George Bernard Shaw 

The Greatness of a Nation and Its Moral Progress Can Be Judged by the Way Its Animals Are Treated. 

Mahatma Gandhi
