Quote #15 on Ecological Struggle Quotes >> Animal Rights and Humanity
“...I feel as strongly as ever that food-reform, like Socialism, has an essential part to play in the liberation of man-kind. I cannot see how there be any real and full recognition of Kinship, as long as men continue either to cheat, or to eat, their fellow-beings!”
