“[Mice] are bred and sold for experimental purposes. The intent of such procedures is to promote the quality of human life, to study the nature of diseases, and hopefully apply what is learned to some of the lives of human beings. Mice are not considered human. They are not. So, like any animal, they are thought of as dispensable, sacrificed to a fine humanitarian end.
“… You cannot improve the quality of your own lives by destroying the quality of any other kinds of life. There is no genetic master race. The vary classification of the species into races to begin with is based upon distinctions that are ridiculously minute in the overall picture of the similarities.”
(Dreams, “Evolution” and Value Fulfillment Vol 2, Session 910)
