Famous Richard D. Ryder Quote
We recognize, I hope, our special responsibilities to the aged and infirm, towards the sick, the mentally subnormal and the physically handicapped. We say that such sentient creatures that are less able to care for themselves deserve our special care and support. The same argument applies to children - and we as adults claim we recognize special duties towards them. If this is so, then why do we not recognize our special duties towards individuals from less clever species?
