Quotes

 * We all seem to think that what is projected in each performance is pure pleasure and joy, but we really don't know and we don't even wonder how the animal feels, being forced to do all those tricks with it without its consent. Together they abuse and torture them to obey the orders they give them. Do you think circuses should continue to exist?.
 * Article No. 3 No animal may be subjected to mistreatment or cruel acts. This law is not applied and I believe it will never be applied.
 * The right to life and freedom of a living being depends for me on each of us showing true respect in the care and love of animal life.
 * Let's not just see what we want to see, but let's look at the reality of analysis, understanding and awareness that things do not seem to be for our benefit or entertainment.
