Quotes
"Gwyneth Paltrow should be ashamed. I can only assume that Paltrow either is ignorant of the facts or lacks human decency and compassion."—Mark Glover, director of Respect for AnimalsTelegraph: Paltrow in fur row with activists (August 17, 2008)

It's a terrible example to set for a young child."—PETA spokespersonTelegraph: Paltrow in fur row with activists (August 17, 2008)
