Each fur jacket and piece of fur trim is taken from a terrified living being who was trapped in the wild ... or who had a miserable life locked inside a barren wire cage before being drowned, electrocuted, poisoned, or skinned alive. ... I, along with many ... would love to see ... take a step into the compassionate future of fashion by pledging not to feature fur.

When you are insulted by someone or humiliated, guard against angry thoughts, lest they arouse a feeling of irritation, and so cut you off from love and place you in the realm of hatred. You should know that you have been greatly benefited when you have suffered deeply because of some insult or indignity; for by means of the indignity self-esteem has been driven out of you.
Maximus the Confessor
As human beings, we have the power to speak up for animals. They don't speak our language, so I feel like it's up to us to help them and give them a voice. Animals have feelings. They have souls. They have emotions. The way they're killed for fur is very inhumane. ... They're electrocuted, beaten, drowned, skinned alive. Once you know that, how could you think wearing fur is cool? It's not.

To place a man in a multi-stage rocket and project him into the controlling gravitational field of the moon where the passengers can make scientific observations, perhaps land alive, and then return to earth-all that constitutes a wild dream worthy of Jules Verne. I am bold enough to say that such a man-made voyage will never occur regardless of all future advances.
Lee De Forest
I have never felt any inward assurance of genius, or any presentiment of glory or of happiness. I have never seen myself in imagination great or famous, or even a husband, a father, an influential citizen. This indifference to the future, this absolute self-distrust, are, no doubt, to be taken as signs. What dreams I have are all vague and indefinite; I ought not to live, for I am now scarcely capable of living.
Henri-Frédéric Amiel
There are books so alive that you're always afraid that while you weren't reading, the book has gone and changed, has shifted like a river; while you went on living, it went on living too, and like a river moved on and moved away. No one has stepped twice into the same river. But did anyone ever step twice into the same book?
