Cruelty has cursed the human family for countless ages.

It is almost impossible for one to be cruel to animals and kind to humans.

If children are permitted to be cruel to their pets and other animals, they easily learn to get the same pleasure from the misery of fellow-humans.

Such tendencies can easily lead to crime.
