heart animal years
One of the things that I have seen change that warms the cockles of my heart is what is happening in the cosmetics industry. For years, they were doing horrible things to animals in the manufacture of cosmetics, and testing of the most barbaric types; today, if you go into a drugstore and go down the [cosmetics] aisle, look at how many of them say no animal testing. I've talked with people who work in the cosmetics departments, and they tell me, Without that, you can't sell them. And that's wonderful!
believe thinking snacks
I can't believe you're a professional golfer. I think you should be working at the snack bar.
dog people known
I can tell you that I'd rather be kissed by my dogs than by some people I've known.
animal elephants needs
I'd like to see animals removed from the entertainment business. Chimpanzees and apes won't perform unless you beat them. Circuses keep elephants in chains 90 percent of the time. Elephants need freedom of movement. In circuses, they live in cramped quarters, which is not the life intended for them by nature. Some are beaten daily, forced to do ridiculous tricks and robbed of every shred of dignity.
thinking numbers age
I think that age as a number is not nearly as important as health. You can be in poor health and be pretty miserable at 40 or 50. If you're in good health, you can enjoy things into your 80s.
strong feel-better thinking
I'm a vegetarian - I think there's a strong possibility, had I not become a vegetarian, I would not be working now. I became a vegetarian about 25 years ago, and I did it out of concern for animals. But I immediately began having more energy and feeling better
pet population helping
Help control the pet population. Have your pets spayed or neutered.
dog animal wonderful
A person who has never owned a dog has missed a wonderful part of life.
chains circus deprived elephants habitat hours keeps natural water
In their natural habitat elephants graze up to 20 hours a day. A circus keeps an elephant in chains 90% of the time. They are deprived of water and deprived of food. They are shocked.
beg came elephants lived release today vote
I came here today to ask, to beg you, to beg you, to vote to release those elephants from that zoo. They have lived in misery.
learned sing
I've learned my song, and I sing it.
furs longer wearing women
If you look around, you don't see young women wearing furs, you see matronly women wearing furs. Furs are no longer chic.
