"Now what is it that moves our very heart and sickens us so much as
cruelty shown to poor brutes? I suppose this: first, that they have done
us no harm; next, that they have no power whatever to resistance; it is
the cowardice and tyranny of which they are the victims which make their
sufferings so especially touching...there is something so very dreadful,
so Satanic in tormenting those who have never harmed us, and who cannot
defend themselves, who are utterly in our power."
