"Until mankind can extend the
circle of his compassion to
include all living things, he will
never, himself, know peace."

Very little of the great cruelty shown by men can really be attributed to cruel instinct. Most of it comes from thoughtlessness or inherited habit. The roots of cruelty, therefore, are not so much strong as widespread. But the time must come when inhumanity protected by custom and thoughtlessness will succumb before humanity championed by thought.
Let us work that this time may come.

I enter information on this site so that people who live miles away can find the graves of their relatives. If I have entered someone you know, I will gladly transfer them to you unless it is my family member.
