Adding these two quotes that she dearly loved...... "Never, never, be afraid to do what's right, especially if the well being of a person or animal is at stake. Society's punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our souls when we look the other way." (MLK) "Man sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices his money to recuperate his health and then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; The result being that he does not live in the present or the future; He lives as if he is never going to die and then he dies having never really lived." (The Dalai Lama)
