Elements of the Philosophy of Right Quotes

Animals are in possession of themselves; their soul is in possession of their body. But they have no right to their life, because they do not will it. - Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (Elements of the Philosophy of Right Quotes)

Animals are in possession of themselves; their soul is in possession of their body. But they have no right to their life, because they do not will it.[Die Tiere haben sich zwar im Besitz; ihre Seele ist im Besitz ihres Körpers, aber sie haben kein Recht auf ihr Leben, weil sie es nicht wollen.]
