Quote #1 on Ecological Struggle Quotes >> Animal Rights and Diet
“The raison d'être of vegetarianism is the growing sense that flesh-eating is a cruel, disgusting, unwholesome, and wasteful practice, and that it behooves humane and rational persons, disregarding the common cant about "consistency" and "all or nothing," to reform their diet to what extent and with what speed they can.”
