Animals Quotes

The people who live here in and around Davos are proud. The hard work, which is done with great love, the way they treat animals (you very seldom see an animal being mishandled) entitle them to be proud.

And that, in turn, ennobles the facial expression and imbues all personal contacts with a great delicacy.
