Famous quotes containing the word animals:
“Thou almost mak’st me waver in my faith
To hold opinion with Pythagoras,
That souls of animals infuse themselves
Into the trunks of men.”

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Chinese civilisation is so systematic that wild animals have been abolished on principle.”
