Every sentient being values her/his life even if no one else does. That is what is meant by saying that the lives of all have inherent value.

We do not need to eat animals, wear animals, or use animals for entertainment purposes, and our only defense of these uses is our pleasure, amusement, and convenience.

I maintain that we ought to abolish the institution and stop causing or facilitating the existence of more 'companion' animals.

Veganism is not a "sacrifice." It is a joy.

Veganism is not a limitation in any way; it's an expansion of your love, your commitment to nonviolence, and your belief in justice for all.

All sentient beings should have at least one right—the right not to be treated as property

You cannot live a nonviolent life as long as you are consuming violence. Please consider going vegan.

If you love animals but think that veganism is extreme, then you are confused about the meaning of love.

Because animals are property, we consider as "humane treatment" that we would regard as torture if it were inflicted on humans.

If you think that being vegan is difficult, imagine how difficult it is for animals that you are not vegan.

Every time you drink a glass of milk or eat a piece of cheese, you harm a mother. Please go vegan.

Success is getting what you want..Happiness is wanting what you get.

His smile banished my loneliness and limbed the hollows of my anema with starlight, pure and bright...his touch hummed in my bones like an aria -- a song to my dance, a beginning of a promise.

Why? Why did God provide me with more than I need?

The great purpose in life is to take your destiny out of the hands of others.

Nothing is concealed from the wise and sensible, while the unbelieving and unworthy cannot learn the secrets.

When the sage stands above people, they are not oppressed. When he leads people, they are not obstructed. The world will exalt him and not grow tired of him.

If the Labour manifesto is a pale shade of austerity, then I believe Labour will be defeated at the next election

If you are interested in what you do, that keeps you going!

It's a lot easier to think of an app and write it than it is to convince people to want it.
