Quote #18 on Ecological Struggle Quotes >> Animal Rights and Humanity
“Into the heads of certain men and women a new thought had taken root; they said, "There is something evil in the taste of human flesh." And ever after, when the flesh-pots were filled with man-flesh, these stood aside, and half the tribe ate human flesh and half not; then, as the years passed, none ate.”
