Certainly it is wrong to be cruel to animals and the destruction of a whole species can be a great evil. The capacity for feelings of pleasure and pain and for the form of life of which animals are capable clearly impose duties of compassion and humanity in their case.
John Rawls
Again, a funny question. I said to you that Rubens is with us until the 31st of December, so does that mean I put Rubens with you in Istanbul not doing something and just for the pleasure of having him? No, he will drive and honestly he is doing a very good job. He's very motivated, very dedicated. We have been very fair to him and I'm expecting him to be very fair to Ferrari.
Jean Todt

Celia Jacobowitz
Oh, the fullness, pleasure, sheer excitement of knowing God on earth!
Jim Elliot
You look in the dictionary under 'old pro' and you'll see his picture. He knows how to play the game of baseball. He's been doing it good for a long time. He wouldn't get out there until he was fully ready. He's a pleasure to have around.

Rex Wilson
Work is both my living and my pleasure.
Harlan Howard
On that road of the informer, it is always night. I cannot ever inform against anyone without feeling something die within me. I inform without pleasure, because it is necessary.
Whittaker Chambers
We appreciate little things more. I think the greatest pleasure in the world is a hot shower.
Carolyne Gatesy
The bottom line is we should take pleasure in the fact American kids are doing better in math. Math achievement is going up in the United States in the long term. It is not, however, where kids in the United States ought to be.
Jack Jennings
I get more pleasure with just cracking a guy and having them quit than anything. I love that part.
Jimmy Grochowsky
Who ever said that pleasure wasn't functional?
Charles Eames
It's not a health food. It's not something anybody needs to eat. These animals are pulled out of the environment, transported, denied sustenance, kept frustrated with their claws locked, and boiled alive. These animals are put through felony-level cruelty, just to give some diner a moment of gastronomic pleasure.
Bruce Friedrich
I'm delighted that Harry Potter continues to give so much pleasure to adults and children, and I'm honored to receive this award.

Guy Virgilio
PLEASURE, n. The least hateful form of dejection.

People in Terre Haute shouldn't look down on him quite so much as this cold, crass guy who wrote dirty novels all his life. Underneath, the impulse for beauty, for joy, for pleasure is in all of his characters.
Stephen Brennan
He's a very nice horse, very well behaved. I'm proud to get on a horse like that. He's probably one of the best horses we've got in training and people liked it. He was a pleasure to be on, to be honest with you.

Larry Finucane
It wounds a man less to confess that he has failed in any pursuit through idleness, neglect, the love of pleasure, etc., etc., which are his own faults, than through incapacity and unfitness, which are the faults of his nature.
William Lamb Melbourne

Harbhajan Singh
The audience that would see that movie, by and large, doesn't go to see horror films, ... It was a great pleasure to make, and to see Meryl (Streep) nominated (for a best actress Oscar) for it. But most of the people I run into who loved it are surprised that I made it. When you have a name that means scares, you have to live with that.
Wes Craven
A German singer! I should as soon expect to get pleasure from the neighing of my horse.
Frederick The Great
It's nice, but its more on those guys than it is on me. They are such a big part of it. I have had the pleasure to coach a lot of great kids and I like my team. I like what I'm doing and I like my team and I don't know how many coaches around here can say that, but I like these kids.

With pleasure, Mexican consulates will be able to house an official from another government so that it can provide adequate defense (to its citizens), in the proper setting, given that we have that ability that does not necessarily correspond to the capability of all the other countries.
Luis Ernesto Derbez
Look at the names in this hall of fame. I didn't think I compared to some professional athletes and people that have done all the things they've done. It's a pleasure, it really is.

George Sheehan
[But the stakes are rather different from those on the Grand Holy Land Pleasure Excursion.] It would be a folly, ... were it not so dangerous.

Emile Durkheim
Although she gets a particular pleasure from portrait and reverse-glass painting, Jackie has recently added miniature art to her list of accomplishments.
Ed Laudano
I wish I had 11 more like him. He is one of the type players that only come around every once in awhile. It has been a pleasure coaching and teaching him the last two years. He will be missed not only on the court, but off the court and in the classroom. He is an all-around good kid.
Emanuel Brown
