The meaning of things lies not in the things themselves but in our attitude towards them.

— Antoine De Saint-Exupery

During one of our stockmanship schools, Richard asked the rhetorical question, “I wonder why some people work their livestock roughly?”

One of the attendees quickly responded, “I know why.”

Richard asked, “Tell us so we’ll all know.”

“Because it’s in the Bible”

Then another attendee said, “Yes, it’s Proverbs 12:10!”

“A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.” —Proverbs 12:10
