“A dog comes to you and lives with you in your own house, but you do not therefore own her, as you do not own the rain, or the trees, or the laws which pertain to them”

“Whatever you do, in the privacy of your own rain shower, is your own business”

“Remember that animals are born to live their own lives, not to serve you! Do not use them; do not exploit them. Let them live their own lives.”

“Forgive everyone for your own sins and be sure to tell them you love them which you do.”

“Sometimes there is no choice but to walk into your own house. Far away, you think, and you do not want to see. You come home and you say do not tell me. You say, I have hunted the elk all over the snowfields of the Selway, and I do not want to know what happened here. And then there is a morning you walk in and take a look in your own house, like any traveler.”
