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.

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.

If the choice is between two evils, it is still evil,

What you call love on your side may be called lust on another's side.

I hate my stomach. It's impossible to get it flat, and the area around my belly button drives me crazy.

I have a lot of people to thank but they're none of them here so I'm not going to bother.

Nature is not something to conquer, but something to learn from or to merge with and be part of - to dance with, celebrate.

If you listen, you learn; if you talk, you don't.

... but the pendulum has swung way out of whack here. A bad idea is still bad, and the pivot happy world we're in today feels suboptimal.

Histories are as perfect as the Historian is wise, and is gifted with an eye and a soul.

Give something back by becoming more

We all get so caught up in the moment of what we're doing every day, it's hard to hit that reset button and get pulled away from all that and see life from a different perspective.
