Letter "V" » Vegetarianism
«Most vegetarians look so much like the food they eat that they can be classified as cannibals.»
«We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature, and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendour and travail of the earth.»
«Vegetarianism is harmless enough, though it is apt to fill a man with wind and self-righteousness»
«When it's all said and done we will lose a piece to a carnivorous vegetarian»
«Better a meal of vegetables where there is love than a fattened calf with hatred»
«It is my view that the vegetarian manner of living by its purely physical effect on the human temperament would most beneficially influence the lot of mankind.»
«I've been a vegetarian for years and years. I'm not judgemental about others who aren't, I just feel I cannot eat or wear living creatures.»
