"Until one has loved an animal a part of one’s soul remains unawakened." ― Anatole France Topic(s): Pet More From Anatole France "Nature has no principles. She makes no distinction between good and evil." "All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another." "War will disappear only when men shall take no part whatever in violence and shall be ready to suffer every persecution that their abstention will bring them. It is the only way to abolish war." More In Pet "The average dog is a nicer person than the average person."― Andy Rooney "When money is controlled by a few it gives that few an undue power and control over labor and the resources of the country. Labor will have its best return when the laborer can control its disposal."― Leland Stanford "What counts is not necessarily the size of the dog in the fight – it’s the size of the fight in the dog."― Dwight D. Eisenhower
