Quotes
"It is time to start asking questions about our habits, our ethics, our traditions and of our inhumane civilisation. When we realise they need to change, we have to take action."
Berty Justice - human being
“The meat industry spends hundreds of millions of dollars lying to the public about their product. But no amount of false propaganda can sanitize meat. The facts are absolutely clear: Eating meat is bad for human health, catastrophic for the environment, and a living nightmare for animals.”
Chrissy Hynde - Singer/songwriter of the pretenders
“If slaughterhouses had glass walls, everyone would be vegetarian. We feel better about ourselves and better about the animals knowing we are not contributing to their pain.”
Linda McCartney

Dr. Jane Goodall, PHD
conservationist and primatologist
“Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for survival of life as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.”
