I nearly killed a rabbit' is not an ingredient for preparing broth or pepper soup. 'I lost it' may seem bitter; but 'I nearly won it' is bitterest! Remember, if it must be done, then it must be done well!

— Criss JamiShe can feel his blood, just beneath his skin; when he breathes, the air fills with smoke. He's like a dragon, ancient and fearless.
— Alice HoffmanThe way you really find out about the performer's seriousness about the cause is how long they stay with it when the spotlight gets turned off. You see a lot of celebrities switch gears. They go from the environment to animal rights to obesity or whatever. That I don't have a lot of respect for.
— Robert RedfordWhy do you feel so powerless? Go spend an hour with ants. Each of those black specks you see is a life. One whole life that you can save, take, or affect in some way. You have the power to make so many lives better. It is within you. Don’t lose sight of that.

I hope, or I could not live. And so, in hope and solitude, my story ends.
— H.G. WellsI was like you once, long time ago. I believed in the dignity of man. Decency. Humanity. But I was lucky. I found out the truth early, boy. And what is the truth, Stark? It's all very simple. There's no such thing as the dignity of man. Man is a base, pathetic and vulgar animal.
