Warum sollte das Gesetz seinen Schutz irgendeinem empfindenden Wesen verweigern? Die Zeit wird kommen, da die Menschheit alles, was atmet, unter ihren Schirm und Schild nehmen wird.
Jeremy Bentham
Why should the law refuse its protection to any sensitive being? The time will come when humanity will extend its mantle over everything which breathes.
Jeremy Bentham
