Man worships an invisible God

and destroys a visible Nature.

Unaware that this Nature he's destroying

is this God he's worshiping.

Hubert Reeves

We're at war with nature. If we win, we're lost.

Hubert Reeves

Many of us feel so removed from fish and other

animals from the sea that we don't think of

these beings as having lives that matter to them.

Their suffering remains invisible

even when it's in plain sight.

Melanie Joy

No one will protect what they don't care about,

and no one will care about what

they have never experienced.

David Attenborough

The question is not, "Can they reason?"

nor "Can they talk?" but, "Can they suffer?"

Jeremy Bentham

Jo Frederiks

Animals can communicate quite well.

And they do. And generally speaking,

the are ignored.

Alice Walker

Man can no longer live for himself alone.

We must realize that all life is valuable

and that we are united to all life.

Albert Schweitzer

The greater your capacity for love,

the more beauty you find in the world.

Jane Smiley

The most ethical diet just so happens to be

the most environmentally sound diet and

just so happens to be the healthiest.

Michael Greger

Why are you so afraid of change? Nothing

in this world can be without change. Only

one rule is constant: do not do anything

inhumane to others.

Marcus Aurelius

Answer me, you who believe that animals are 

only machines. Has nature arranged for this

animal to have all the machinery of feelings

only in order for it not to have any at all?

Voltaire

Our task must be to free ourselves... by widening

our circle of compassion to embrace all living

creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty.

Albert Einstein

I realized as I watched him fight for breath,

that his life was as important to him

as mine is to me.

Paul McCartney

True empathy is not self-focused but other-

oriented. Instead of making humanity

the measure of all things, we need to

evaluate other species by what they are.

Frans de Waal

Happiness is in your ability to love others.

Leo Tolstoy

We're all members of the animal kingdom.

Leave your brothers and sisters in the sea.

Prince

Even in the worm that crawls in the earth

there glows a divine spark. When you

slaughter a creature, you slaughter God.

Isaac Bashevis Singer

🍴 All Life is Connected 🌍

We're at war with nature.

If we win, we're lost.

Hubert Reeves

Eating animals has brought us to our knees

as a species. I think it's time to re-examine

our world in a way that doesn't abuse

other species.

Brian May

The concept of factory farming is one 

of our biggest failures as a species.

Khaled bin Alwaleed

Jo Frederiks

The fate of animals is more important to me

than the fear of appearing ridiculous; it is

indissolubly connected with the fate of men.

Émile Zola

Our fate is inextricably linked to the health and

resilience of the Earth and our fellow earthlings,

and when these are harmed and made to suffer,

so are we.

Gene Baur

The New Swiss Army Knife of the Future

In our hands now lies not only our own future,

but that of all other living creatures

with whom we share the Earth.

David Attenborough

The whole creation groans under the weight

of the evil we humans visit upon these

powerless creatures.

Tom Regan

We are the collateral damage of carnism;

we pay for it with our health,

our environment and our taxes.

Melanie Joy

Reality cannot be ignored except at a price;

and the longer the ignorance is persisted in,

the higher and more terrible becomes

the price that must be paid.

Aldous Huxley

Nothing will benefit human health and

increase the chances for survival of life on Earth

as much as the evolution to a vegan diet.

If the whole world adopts veganism,

it can change the destiny of humankind.

Albert Einstein

We are, quite literally, gambling with the future

of our planet - for the sake of hamburgers.

Peter Singer

Veganism is the 'single biggest way' to reduce

your environmental impact on the planet.

Joseph Poore

The Elephant in the Room

Man can no longer live for himself alone.

We must realize that all life is valuable

and that we are united to all life.

Albert Schweitzer

Every time you spend money you're casting

a vote for the kind of world you want.

Anna Lappé

Palm Oil and Pollution

Do your little bit of good where you are;

it's those little bits of good put together

that overwhelm the world.

Desmond Tutu

We are all victims of the violence that animals

suffer... their liberation is also our liberation.

George Bernard Shaw

Jo Frederiks

Ironically, people will do anything to protect

their children, except protect the planet.

Khaled Bin Alwaleed

We are made wise not by the recollection

of our past, but by the responsibility

for our future.

George Bernard Shaw

Jo Frederiks

I think that the Earth's immune system is trying

to get rid of us, as well it should.

Kurt Vonnegut

The destiny of animals cannot be separated

from the destiny of man, and the destiny

of man cannot be separated from

the destiny of all of nature.

Gregory Colbert

What will save us is not technology or science.

What will save us is the ethical

transformation of our society.

Carmelite Father Eduardo Agosta Scarel

How we treat animals is powerfully connected

to our relationship with the world itself.

Nathalie Portman

In the Belly of the Beast

While we ourselves are the living graves

of murdered animals, how can we expect

any ideal living conditions on this Earth?

George Bernard Shaw
