Hannibal Lecter:
First and worst sign of sociopathic behavior, cruelty to animals.

Jack Crawford :
That doesn't apply in the kitchen.

Hannibal Lecter:
I have no taste for animal cruelty. That's why I employ an ethical butcher.

Phyllis 'Bella' Crawford:
An ethical butcher, be kind to animals and eat them?

Hannibal Lecter:
I'm afraid I insist on it, no need for unnecessary suffering. Human emotions are a gift from our animal ancestors. Cruelty is a gift humanity has given itself.

A gift that keeps on giving.
