"Oxfam estimates that more than 2 billion people have no clean water
and that more than 3 billion have no sanitation - approximately half of the world
population. This is the main reason why 25,000 children die every
day from diseases associated with dirty water. One in three people in the
developing world does not have enough to eat. It is these factors rather
than lack of sophisticated medicines which are killing people."
- Animal Rights, Mark Gold, Jon Carpenter 1995.

"There is another, more important side effect of dream drugs; they lull us,
even in anticipation, into a false sense of safety. We enter an illusory world
in which anything that is broken can be simply fixed, in which anything
that is wrong with us has its own private molecular magic wand that,
when waved over us, will make it go away."
- The Trouble with Medicine, Dr Melvin Konner, BBC Books, 1993.

Animal research scientists have themselves on occasion sought to frighten
the public with statements to the effect that medical science will be
severely damaged or halted or millions of human lives will be lost in
response to suggested humane modifications in research policies. in reality,
neither science nor the world will come to a tragic end by attempting to refine,
reduce, and replace part or all of the use of animals in biomedical research,
education and testing. - 'Animal protection and medical science',
Wiebers, Lieming and White, in The Lancet, 9.4.94.
