Harris, John - Suppose that tomorrow a group of beings from another planet were to land on earth, beings who considered themselves as superior to you as you feel yourself to be to other animals. Would they have the right to treat you as you treat the animals you breed, keep and kill for food?

Harrison, Ruth - Family organisation is broken and young animals are increasingly being denied a mother to turn to for comfort and for grooming. One of the saddest and most pathetic of farm practices inevitable at the present time for the supply of dairy produce is the separation of the calf from the cow at birth or soon after.

Herriot, James - I hope to make people realize how totally helpless animals are, how dependent on us, trusting as a child must that we will be kind and take care of their needs ...[they] are an obligation put on us, a responsibility we have no right to neglect, nor to violate by cruelty.

Hippocrates - The soul is the same in all living creatures, although the body of each is different.

Hollands, Clive - I am not basically a conservationist. When the last great whale is slaughtered, as it surely will be, the whales' suffering will be over. This is not the whales' loss, but man's. I am not concerned about the wiping out of a species this is man's folly I have only one concern, the suffering which we deliberately inflict upon animals whilst they live.
