“Until we have the courage to recognize cruelty for what it is—whether its
victim is human or animal —we cannot expect things to be much better in this
world. We cannot have peace among men whose hearts delight in killing any
living creature. By every act that glorifies or even tolerates such moronic
delight in killing we set back the progress of humanity.”—Rachel Carson,
Silent Spring
