Russian Writer, Novelisst, Vegetarian, Pacifist, Christian Theorist, Libertarian, Ally of Anarchists, and Regarded as one of the Greatest Authors of all Time
: A Russian writer who is regarded as one of the greatest authors of all time. He received nominations for the Nobel Prize in Literature every year from 1902 to 1906 and for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1901, 1902, and 1909; the fact that he never won is a major controversy. (From: Wikipedia.org.)
Quote #11 on Ecological Struggle Quotes >> Animal Rights and Human Sympathy
“I only wish to say that for a good life a certain order of good actions is indispensable; that if a man's aspirations toward right living be serious they will inevitably follow one definite sequence, and in this sequence the first thing will be self-control in food — fasting [from animal products].”
