Animals. It's their world, too...
"Non-human animals are regarded as properties They are victims of a mentality that considers them things or tools that exist for human benefit." ~ N/A
"I'm on a vegan diet, I do yoga every day, I work out, I'm totally spiritual …." (Calgary Sun) ~ Avril Lavigne
"People who wear fur smell like a wet dog if they’re in the rain. And they look fat and gross. They look like really immature, unenlightened, stupid people. When people are so blatant about cruelty, it makes me nauseous. ... [E]very season, [the furriers] put propaganda everywhere that fur is taking off again. And they give free coats to idiots like Jennifer Lopez and people who’ll wear them. Like Puff Daddy." (Jane) ~ Pamela Anderson
"People get offended by animal rights campaigns. It's ludicrous. It's not as bad as mass animal death in a factory." (Time Out) ~ Richard Gere
"If you could feel or see the suffering you wouldn't think twice. Give back life. Don't eat meat." (The Compassionate Cook) ~ Kim Basinger
It is just like man's vanity and impertinence to call an animal dumb because it is dumb to his dull perceptions. - Mark Twain
"People often say that humans have always eaten animals, as if this is a justification for continuing the practice. According to this logic, we should not try to prevent people from murdering other people, since this has also been done since the earliest of times." —Isaac Bashevis Singer (Nobel Prize-winning novelist, 1902 - 1991)
THESE BIRDS AND ANIMALS AND FISH CANNOT SPEAK, BUT THEY CAN SUFFER ... AND OUR GOD WHO CREATED THEM KNOWS THEIR SUFFERINGS, AND WILL HOLD HIM WHO CAUSES THEM TO SUFFER UNNECESSARILY TO ANSWER FOR IT. - GEORGE CANNON
Put a small child in a playpen with an apple and a bunny. If s/he eats the apple and plays with the bunny, s/he's normal;but if s/he eats the bunny and plays with the apple, I'll buy you a new car. Somewhere along the line we must have been TAUGHT to do the wrong thing. --Maynard
As long as people will shed the blood of innocent creatures there can be no peace, no liberty, no harmony between people. Slaughter and justice cannot dwell together. - Isaac Bashevis Singer
When non-vegetarians say that human problems come first, I cannot help wondering what exactly it is that they are doing for human beings that compels them to continue to support the wasteful, ruthless exploitation of farmed animals. - Dr. Peter Singer
Isn't man an amazing animal? He kills wildlife - birds, kangaroos, deer, all kinds of cats, coyotes, beavers, groundhogs, mice, foxes and dingoes - by the million in order to protect his domestic animals and their feed. Then he kills domestic animals by the billion and eats them. This in turn kills man by the millions, because eating all those animals leads to degenerative - and fatal - health conditions like heart disease, kidney disease, and cancer. So then man tortures and kills millions more animals to look for cures for these diseases. Elsewhere, millions of other human beings are being killed by hunger and malnutrition because food they could eat is being used to fatten domestic animals. Meanwhile, some people are dying of sad laughter at the absurdity of man, who kills so easily and so violently, and once a year, sends out cards praying for Peace on Earth. - David Coats, Old MacDonald's Factory Farm
The fate of animals is of greater importance to me than the fear of appearing ridiculous; it is indissolubly connected with the fate of man. - Emile Zola
Take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. - Elie Wiesel
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, Animal Machines
Wild animals never kill for sport. Man is the only one to whom the torture and death of his fellow creatures is amusing in itself. - James A. Froude (1818-1894)
Life is life--whether in a cat, or dog or man. There is no difference there between a cat or a man. The idea of difference is a human conception for man's own advantage. - Sri Aurobindo
"Killing an animal to make a coat is sin. It wasn't meant to be, and we have no right to do it. A woman gains status when she refuses to see anything killed to be put on her back. Then she's truly beautiful." —Doris Day (actress, singer and founder of the Doris Day Animal League) http://www.ddal.org/
All beings tremble before violence. All fear death. All love life. -Buddha
Conserve a hunter, harvest one today. -unknown
Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one that inflicts pain for the pleasure of doing it. -Mark Twain
The wild, cruel animal is not behind the bars of a cage. He is in front of it. -Axel Munthe
"All national institutions of churches, whether jewish, christian, or turkish, appear to me no other than human inventions, set up to terrify and enslave mankind, and monopolize power and profit." -Thomas Paine, "Age Of Reason"
"But for the sake of some little mouthful of flesh, we deprive a soul of the sun and light and of that proportion of life and time it had been born into the world to enjoy." -Plutarch
"Look deep into the eyes of any animal, and then for a moment, trade places, their life becomes as precious as yours and you become as vulnerable as them. Now smile if you believe all animals deserve our respect and our protection, for in a way, they are us, and we are them." -Philip Ochoa Board Member, ALL FOR ANIMALS
"Thousands of people who say they 'love' animals sit down once or twice a day to enjoy the flesh of creatures who have been utterly deprived of everything that could make their lives worth living and who endured the awful suffering and the terror of the abattoirs." —Dr. Jane Goodall
Six million Jews died in concentration camps, but six billion broiler chickens will die this year in slaughter houses. -Ingrid Newkirk (PETA)
"When I think of the fact that literally tens of billions of animals are killed nearly every year for human purposes, part of me wants to go out and join the Animal Liberation Front." (The Independent) ~ Moby
"Yeah, milk does a body good—if you are a calf. It is evil to your body to put something in there that's designed to make an animal go from very small to very big in a short time." (The Independent) ~ Woody Harrelson
[On becoming a vegan] "My body just got so healthy and skinny and my skin became so radiant that I started looking fabulous anyway." (The Independent) ~ Alicia Silverstone
"If any kid realized what was involved in factory farming, they would never touch meat again. I was so moved by the intelligence, sense of fun, and personality of the animals I worked with on Babe that by the end of the film I was a vegetarian." (Newark Star-Ledger) ~ James Cromwell
"[Y]ou need to hunt something that can shoot back at you to really classify yourself as a hunter. You need to understand the feeling of what it's like to go into the field and know your opposition can take you out. Not just go out there and shoot Bambi." (Minneapolis Star-Tribune) ~ Gov. Jesse Ventura
"I've always felt that animals are the purest spirits in the world. They don't fake or hide their feelings, and they are the most loyal creatures on Earth. And somehow we humans think we're smarter—what a joke." (Chicago Sun Times) ~ P!nk
"We are big veggie people in our house. I know that sounds boring, but we are more indulgent with our love than our food. So it's going to be a veggie menu." (OK! Magazine) ~ Jennifer Connelly
[When asked what she would do if she had to choose between animals and men] "I would choose animals all the way. I know that's the one thing in life I cannot live without. I would be so amazingly unhappy if I didn't have my puppies and my kitties. I haven't found a good man, yet. I've found lots of good animals, so I'd go with animals." (CMT.com) ~ Carrie Underwood
"You name me one creature on this Earth that used milk after they're weaned. It's not good for you. It's good for a suckling calf. Are you a suckling calf?" (Dateline NBC) ~ Jack La Lanne
"It must be vegetarian. I don't want any meat put in front of me." (Celebrity Living Weekly) ~ Brad Pitt
"Eating vegetarian and jogging regularly have taken me far." (MediaCorp News) ~ Susan Sarandon
"I cheer when a bull at Pamplona sinks his horns deep into the lower intestines of some drunken European macho swine. And my cheers grow louder when the victim is a young American macho-jock tourist asshole. Especially if the bull is able to swing the second horn around and catch the guy right in the nuts." (Brain Droppings) ~ George Carlin
"I'm 23 now, and I've grown into this woman. I feel sexy and more mature. I wanted these inside changes to be reflected in both my look and music. I am a vegan now, and it was a conscious decision. I studied a lot about African culture and health and the best way to take care of the body. I really wanted to be healthy. At first I was just trying to challenge myself; I thought it was a phase and that I would grow out of it, but it wasn't. I found out a lot about the body and what [hormones] they put in meat. My taste buds started changing, and I didn't crave [meat and dairy products] anymore." (Essence.com) ~ Brandy
"I'm anti-fur because there's no need for animals to die for fashion. It isn't necessary. Besides, wearing fur makes you look like an old woman! It can take up to 100 chinchillas to make one coat, and Jennifer Lopez has one made of 80 of them, all killed by electrocution or [by] having their necks [broken]. China, where most fur now comes from (as it's cheap), has no regulations for animal welfare. Dogs, cats, and other animals are skinned alive and die slow, extremely painful deaths. If you want to help, all I can say is: Never. Wear. Fur." (Cosmopolitan) ~ Natilie Imbruglia
"Linda McCartney [vegetarian] sausages were my favourite. They're much better than eating real sausages and you don't have to contemplate half way through exactly what's inside them. ... You can have them, a bit of fried bread, tinned tomatoes. Delicious." (AnimalAid.org) ~ Simon Cowell
I admit to having worn suede and leather pants myself for a while, but you just never feel clean, and it's degenerate, anyway, to wear animal skins.... So I went back to bluejeans after my degenerate period. -Andy Warhol
Vegetarians have the best diet. They have the lowest rates of coronary disease of any group in the country....Some people scoff at vegetarians, but they have a fraction of our heart attack rate and they have only 40 percent of our cancer rate. They outlive other men by about six years now. -Dr.William Castelli
Excessive animal protein is at the core of many chronic diseases. -Dr.Campbell
I've always been very bonded to animals -- more so than most people. (laughs) I don't think that they can defend themselves, so we have to help them. -Jennie Garth
"All of us who are vegan have at some time or another just felt like absolute outsiders in the places that we’re supposed to be the most comfortable… our homes, our jobs, and with our friends and families. Though most vegans are likely not any “freakier†than your average person, the simple and compassionate act of denying animal products for ethical reasons can literally make you into the weirdo at the dinner table, or in other social and personal contexts.†~ From "Vegan Freak" by Bob and Jenna Torres, PhDs
Always remember, a cat looks down on man, a dog looks up to man, but a pig will look man right in the eye and see his equal. ~ Winston Churchill
Mankind differs from the animals only by a little and most people throw that away. ~ Confucius
Regan when asked which he would save, a dog or a baby, if a boat capsized in the ocean: "If it were a retarded baby and a bright dog, I'd save the dog." -Tom Regan, Q&A session following a speech, University of Wisconsin-Madison, October 27, 1989. (LMFAO. I'm sorry but that's some of the funniest shit i've heard in my life). "If the death of one rat cured all diseases, it wouldn't make any difference to me." -Chris De Rose, Director, Last Chance for Animals
"An animal experiment cannot be justifiable unless the experiment is so important that the use of a brain-damaged human would be justifiable." -Peter Singer, Animal Liberation: A New Ethic for Our Treatment of Animals, 2nd. edition, 1990.
"Arson, property destruction, burglary and theft are 'acceptable crimes' when used for the animal cause." -Alex Pacheco, Director, PETA
Man is the only creature that consumes without producing. He does not give milk, he does not lay eggs, he is too weak to pull the plough, he cannot run fast enough to catch rabbits. Yet he is lord of all the animals. ~George Orwell, Animal Farm
If we cut up beasts simply because they cannot prevent us and because we are backing our own side in the struggle for existence, it is only logical to cut up imbeciles, criminals, enemies, or capitalists for the same reasons. ~C.S. Lewis
When a man wantonly destroys one of the works of man we call him a vandal. When he destroys one of the works of god we call him a sportsman. ~Joseph Wood Krutch
If you love animals called pets, why do you eat animals called dinner? ~As seen on a shirt at veganstore.com
Animals can communicate quite well. And they do. And generally speaking, they are ignored. ~Alice Walker
Please light a candle in memory of the innocent victims of BSL.
Are you Laverne or Shirley?
Sew On That S to Your Monogrammed Sweater! You're definitely Shirley at heart. Face it, you're the voice of reason when the world goes a little mad. Where would your friends be without you? Most likely the mental ward or prison. And sure you're reserved and sometimes even saintly, but you've also got a daring inner child that comes out to play now and again. (Tip: Don't be afraid to let her loose more often!)
