Veterinary Social Work at Virginia Tech
"We should have respect for animals because it makes better human beings of us all."
"You cannot go through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what difference you want to make."
"Let us develop respect for all living things. Let us try to replace violence and intolerance with understanding and compassion. And love."
— Jane Goodall
