Quote #6 on Ecological Struggle Quotes >> Animal Rights and Human Oppression
“You cannot mean to say that because Polydamas, the pancratiast [athlete], is stronger than we are, and finds the eating of beef conducive to his bodily strength, that to eat beef is therefore equally for our good who are weaker than he is, and right and just for us?”
Source: "The Republic," by Plato, 360 BC, translated by Benjamin Jowett. Book 1.
