“Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.” -Albert Einstein
"The only foods that contain immune-strengthening and cancer-fighting nutrients are plant
foods." - Mike Anderson
“I did not become a vegetarian for my health, I did it for the health of the chickens.” -Isaac Bashevis Singer
“Would you kill your pet dog or cat to eat it? How about an animal you're not emotionally attached to? Is the thought of slaughtering a cow or chicken or pig with your own hands too much to handle? Instead, would hiring a hit-man to do the job give you enough distance from the emotional discomfort? What animal did you put a contract out on for your supper last night? Did you at least make sure that none went to waste and to take a moment to be grateful for its sacrifice?" -Anonymous
“I decided I needed to be consistent in my prolife stance so 13 years ago I became a vegetarian.” -David O’Steen, national director of Right to Life
“A man can live and be healthy without killing animals for food; therefore, if he eats meat, he participates in taking animal life merely for the sake of his appetite. And to act so is immoral.” -Leo Tolstoy
“In fact, if one person is unkind to an animal it is considered to be cruelty, but where a lot of people are unkind to animals, especially in the name of commerce, the cruelty is condoned and, once large sums of money are at stake, will be defended to the last by otherwise intelligent people.” -Ruth Harrison, author
“If slaughterhouses had glass walls, everyone would be a vegetarian.” -Paul McCartney
“If you visit the killing floor of a slaughterhouse, it will brand your soul for life.” -Howard Lyman
Of course these are what I believe to be "good quotes" as I am a proud vegetarian. If you are a meat eater, please read these with an open mind ;)
