36. There is enough compassion
in each of us for both humans and animals. And personally, after awhile, caring for and loving animals is more important, because animals can't tell you what's wrong and what's bothering them.

I would like to think that we're better than most people and that being aware of animals and their troubles is as important to people as any other living creature on this planet.

Whether it's a horse, a cat, a dog or even a frog, it's living, it feels pain and it deserves respect.

And I would rather read about Barbaro than any one of a dozen or more issues in the world of news like Rosie v Trump, or missing white girls.
