Hi Elizabeth, Thanks! I remembered the quote and like most of us, was used to the first part. I googled it to get the quote and found that on another famous animal quotes site. I thought it was great way to conclude to my presentation and was happy that it got left up as long as it did! I liked it, too. Cheers, Teresa On Aug 13, 2010, at 12:10 AM, Elizabeth Y wrote:
Hello-
I was at the SF Animal Control & Welfare Commission tonight (as were Cheryl D and Barna and several Mickaboo volunteers among others) and guinea pig rescuer Teresa Murphy made a presentation that included a quote that I've seen before but not in its entirety. It is from Mahatma Ghandi and the part that was both new to me as well as especially moving said "The more helpless a creature is, the more it deserves protection from human cruelty."
I have often wondered how I wound up being a pigeon rescuer and I think that is the answer.
