The only way Hinduism can convert the whole world to cow-protection is by giving an object-lesson in cow-protection and all it means.

Mahatma Gandhi

Cow protection to me is infinitely more than mere protection of the cow.

Mahatma Gandhi

Cow protection means protection of the weak, the helpless, the dumb and the deaf.

Mahatma Gandhi

Cow protection to me is one of the most wonderful phenomena in the human evolution.

Mahatma Gandhi

I went through the fields, and sat for an hour afraid to pass a cow. The cow looked at me, and I looked at the cow, and whenever I stirred the cow gave over eating.

Dorothy Wordsworth

The central fact of Hinduism is cow protection.

Mahatma Gandhi

Cow protection is the gift of Hinduism to the world.

Mahatma Gandhi

Cow-protection can only be secured by cultivating universal friendliness, i.e. ahimsa.

Mahatma Gandhi

The main thing is you have to be under the protection of spirituality, under the protection of morality, under the protection of divine laws. If you're not under that protection, you can get caught up into anything.

I'm saying that the leaders of the church have locked the sacred cow called science in the stable and they won't let anybody enter; they should open it immediately so that we can milk that cow in the name of humanity and thus find the truth.

I have learned that I, we, are a dollar-a-day people (which is terrible, they say, because a cow in Japan is worth $9 a day). This means that a Japanese cow would be a middle class Kenyan... a $9-a-day cow from Japan could very well head a humanitarian NGO in Kenya. Massages are very cheap in Nairobi, so the cow would be comfortable.

Homaro Cantu

The first case of mad cow disease since 2006 was discovered right here in the United States. The good news, since the cow is in California, instead of putting the cow down, they are going to enroll him in anger management classes.

I have to say that in this particular cow that we're dealing with, those parts of the cow were removed, and so we don't think there's any risk or very negligible risk to human health with this particular incident.
