Animals

@ Wild animals never kill for sport. Man is the only one to whom the torture and death of his fellow creatures is amusing in itself.
Oceana, or, England and Her Colonies (1886) [C. Scribner's Sons, 1972, ISBN 083699096X, 9780836990966, 396 pages], p. 67

Attitudes

¶ History is a voice forever sounding across the centuries the laws of right and wrong. Opinions alter, manners change, creeds rise and fall, but the moral law is written on the tablets of eternity.

Nature

@ Nature is less partial than she appears, and all situations in life have their compensations along with them.
Bunyan (1880), Ch. X, p. 175; a 2005 edition is also available from Kessinger Publishing ISBN 1-417-97107-X
