“There is no religion without love, and people may talk as much as they like about their religion, but if it does not teach them to be good and kind to man and beast, it is all a sham.”
Anna Sewell, “Black Beauty”
I need some more of this in my life.
This is beautiful, I'd be curious to know exactly where the original saying came from.
After this image became so popular, the quote passed me by on an almost daily basis. Eventually, my brain settled on a bit more darkish interpretation of ‘the crows leading you home’.
Made for inktober initially, original drawing can be found here
