Ever since 'Lassie' and 'Old Yeller' I won't watch animal movies. Animals in movies always die.

I could really use a corporate sponsor. People think that because you're in the movies you're rich. I have allocated all my resources to Shambala so the animals will always be safe.

Animals they are one of the most beautiful gifts we have and you know if there are people that have compassion there are very few people that put their money into animal rescue organizations. And if there is someone that has that passion animals need all the help they can get.

The thing that differentiates man from animals is money.

Men feel that cruelty to the poor is a kind of cruelty to animals. They never feel that it is an injustice to equals nay it is treachery to comrades.

The animals of the world exist for their own reasons. They were not made for humans any more than black people were made for white or women created for men.

People who have no hold over their process of thinking are likely to be ruined by liberty of thought. If thought is immature liberty of thought becomes a method of converting men into animals.

A man is ethical only when life as such is sacred to him that of plants and animals as that of his fellow men and when he devotes himself helpfully to all life that is in need of help.

He who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men. We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals.

If we're destroying our trees and destroying our environment and hurting animals and hurting one another and all that stuff there's got to be a very powerful energy to fight that. I think we need more love in the world. We need more kindness more compassion more joy more laughter. I definitely want to contribute to that.
