People need to be educated so that they can make intelligent moral choices

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.

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.

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

No one can say no to your success and happiness because God has already said yes on the day you were born.

Nobody on this planet is going to be untouched by the impacts of climate change.

There is so much media now with the Internet and people, and so easy and so cheap to start a newspaper or start a magazine, there's just millions of voices and people want to be heard.

I'm a little territorial and defensive.
