Animal Quotes

What happens if you are the last (the very, very last) of your species, and you die - and humans notice? We live, increasingly, at a time when extinctions are recorded, remembered, and the last animal (or plant) in its line, by virtue of its being last, becomes a kind of celebrity. Its finality becomes a thing to honor Picture Quote #1

I would love to be more specific, but really, any type of bird is the funniest animal. They have to move awkwardly when walking. They have beady eyes; they are very suspicious. They can’t do anything right. They have no hands, which is inherently funny Picture Quote #1

When I was 7 and went to the zoo with my second-grade class, I saw chimpanzee eyes for the first time - the eyes of an unhappy animal, all alone, locked in a bare, concrete-floored, iron-barred cage in one of the nastier, old-fashioned zoos. I remember looking at the chimp, then looking away Picture Quote #1

The eye is the window of the soul; even an animal looks for a man’s intentions right into his eyes Picture Quote #1

There can be in the eyes of God no distinction between man and man, even as there is no distinction between animal and animal Picture Quote #1

The train system in India is chaotic and fun - it’s the best way to see the landscape. Being in with all the families and also being the odd animal is a colourful experience you’ll never forget Picture Quote #1

There cannot be found in the animal kingdom a bat, or any other creature, so blind in its own range of circumstance and connection, as the greater majority of human beings are in the bosoms of their families Picture Quote #1

If you have this enormous talent, it’s got you by the balls, it’s a demon. You can’t be a family man and a husband and a caring person and be that animal. Dickens wasn’t that nice a guy Picture Quote #1

If you want to look at the state of humans, you should look at the state of animals first. People are choosing whether or not they can feed an animal and their family. And every shelter coast-to-coast is stuffed Picture Quote #1

If you’re buying animal products and can go to the farm and actually see how the animals are looked after, yes, that’s an important point. That’s definitely the best way of assuring yourself that the animals are being well treated Picture Quote #1

In any evolutionary environment, knowing your opponent’s decision would not be advantageous for long because your opponent would evolve the same recognition mechanism to also know you Picture Quote #1

Nonviolence is not just abstention from war, fighting, or animal flesh. It is abstention from negative thoughts and negative speech Picture Quote #1

If a man earnestly seeks a righteous life, his first act of abstinence is from animal food Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries Picture Quote #1

I fancy it must be the quantity of animal food eaten by the English which renders their character insusceptible to civilization. I suspect it is in their kitchens and not in their churches that the reformation must be worked Picture Quote #1

All this is to be considered with respect to sexual life Picture Quote #1

The industrial stomach cannot live without coal; industry is a carbonivorous animal and must have its proper food Picture Quote #1
