Peter Singer Quotes:
Ocupation: Philosopher
Life: b. July 6, 1946
Birthday: July 6
No consideration at all is given to the interests of the "pests" - the very word "pest" seems to exclude any concern for the animals themselves. But the classification "pest" is our own, and a rabbit that is a pest is as capable of suffering, and as deserving of consideration, as a white rabbit who is a beloved companion animal.
