"A Prayer for Animals"

Hear our humble prayer, Oh God,

for our friends, the animals,

especially for animals who are suffering;

for any that are lost or deserted

or frightened or hungry.

We entreat for them all

Thy mercy and pity,

and for those who deal with them

we ask a heart of compassion

and gentle hands and kindly words.

Make us, ourselves,

to be true friends to animals

and so to share the blessings of the merciful.

~Albert Schweitzer

"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress
can be judged by the way its animals are treated.
I hold that, the more helpless a creature,
the more entitled it is to protection by man
from the cruelty of man."

- Mahatma Ghandi
