“ True human goodness, in all its purity and freedom, can come to the fore only when its recipient has no power. Mankind’s true moral test, its fundamental test (which lies deeply buried from view) , consists of its attitude towards those who are at its mercy: animals. ”
Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being (1984). copy citation
