And I have loved you all this time- a century and a half. -Jem“ — Cassandra Clare „I had a vague memory of being that ridiculous at one time. Let he who hath never worn parachute pants cast the first stone.“ — Jim Butcher „I don't know if it's a hundred years, but it seems to me if history continues—that's not at all obvious, that it will—but if society continues to develop without catastrophe on something like the course that you can sort of see over time, I wouldn't be in the least surprised if it moves toward vegetarianism and protection of animal rights. In fact, what we've seen over the years—and it's hard to be optimistic in the twentieth century, which is one of the worst centuries in human history in terms of atrocities and terror and so on—but still, over the years, including the twentieth century, there is a widening of the moral realm, bringing in broader and broader domains of individuals who are regarded as moral agents.“ — Noam Chomsky
