“Let no one regard as light the burden of his or her ultimate responsibility. To the degree that we remain silent while so much ill-treatment of the innocent continues — while the moans of thirsty animals crammed into railway trucks remain unheard, while the cries of newborn calves & piglets torn from their mothers’ embrace remain ignored, while such extreme brutality prevails in our slaughterhouses as well as our barbeques — we will all continue to bear a great and deep-seated guilt.” ~ inspired by Albert Schweitzer
