In the article “When…

For example, the speaker, Sarah McLachlan, asserts, “Everyday innocent animals are abused, beaten,…

“In the arms of the angel, fly away from here, from this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear. You are pulled from the wreckage, of your silent reverie. You're in the arms of the angel, may you find some comfort here” (Sarah McLachlan). Each day, hundreds of animals die from hunger and abuse.
