๐ŸŒฑ The Vegan Community ๐ŸŒป

People working together in a strong community
with a shared goal and a common purpose
can make the impossible possible.

Tom Vilsack


If you think we can't change the world,
it just means you're not one of those who will.

Jacque Fresco


The time will come when men such as I
will look upon the murder of animals
as they now look upon the murder of men.

Leonardo da Vinci


Think about what your skills are, and what you
enjoy doing, or what you're good at and
employ those specific skills to make
the world a better place.

Jo-Anne McArthur


Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked,
in which you can walk with love and reverence.

Henry David Thoreau


I am of the opinion that my life belongs to
the whole community and as long as I live,
it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can.

George Bernard Shaw


The key is to keep company only with people who
uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best.

Epictetus


All truth passes through three stages.
First, it is ridiculed.
Second, it is violently opposed.
Third, it is accepted as self-evident.

Arthur Schopenhauer


Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful,
committed citizens can change the world.
Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

Margaret Mead


A man can live and be healthy without killing
animals for food; therefore, if he eats meat,
he participates in taking life merely
for the sake of his appetite.
And to act so is immoral.

Leo Tolstoy


You meet saints everywhere.
They are people behaving decently
in an indecent society.

Kurt Vonnegut


We can judge the heart of a man
by his treatment of animals.

Immanuel Kant


The thing that's annoying about there suddenly
being a lot of vegans is the nagging suspicion
that they might be right.

David Mitchell



You can judge a man's true character by
the way he treats his fellow animals.

Paul McCartney



I'm so proud to be a vegan.
It's the best decision I have ever made.
For my health and for the world and
for the sake of decency and compassion.

Paul Wesley


Being vegan helped me realize I can say and do
what I believe is right. That's powerful.

Alicia Silverstone







Truth has to be repeated constantly,
because Error also is being preached all the time,
and not just by a few, but by the multitude. In
the Press, Encyclopaedias, in Schools and
Universities, everywhere Error holds sway,
feeling happy and comfortable in
the knowledge of having Majority on its side.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe


We are all victims of the violence that animals
suffer... their liberation is also our liberation.

George Bernard Shaw


My awareness of belonging to the invisible
community of those who strive for truth,
beauty and justice has prevented me
from feelings of isolation.

Albert Einstein


Be the change you want to see in the world.
Mahatma Gandhi


People who say things like "I can't worry
about animals when there are humans
who need help" tend to do f*ck all
to help humans neither...
Kindness is kindness. Simple as that.

Ricky Gervais


My life is my message.
Mahatma Gandhi



We are only as strong as we are united,
as weak as we are divided.

J.K. Rowling


The day the power of love overrules the love
of power, the world will know peace.

Mahatma Gandhi

Vegans in Media

Many people, especially ignorant people,
want to punish you for speaking the truth,
for being correct, for being you.
Never apologize for being correct,
or for being years ahead of your time.
If you're right and you know it,
speak your mind.
Even if you are a minority of one,
the truth is still the truth.

Mahatma Gandhi


Never, never be afraid to do what's right,
especially if the well-being of person
or animal is at stake. Society's punishments
are small compared to the wounds we inflict
on our soul when we look the other way.

Martin Luther King, Jr.


The further a society drifts from the truth,
the more it will hate those who speak it.

George Orwell


The truth is that people are brainwashed into
thinking that it's normal to consume animals.
They are so uncomfortable with confronting
what happens to those animals because
they are part and parcel of that cruelty.

Juliet Gellatley


Our grandchildren will ask us one day:
Where were you during the Holocaust
of the animals? What did you do against
those horrifying crimes? We won't be
able to offer the same excuse for
the second time, that we didn't know.

Helmut Kaplan


Animal rights is a part of my everyday life.
When you live by example, you create a
certain level of awareness. People I have
never discussed veganism with are adopting
new habits because they see it.

Joaquin Phoenix


You meet saints everywhere.
They are people behaving decently
in an indecent society.

Kurt Vonnegut


I cannot teach anybody anything.
I can only make them think.

Socrates


The thing that's annoying about there suddenly
being a lot of vegans is the nagging suspicion
that they might be right.

David Mitchell


Kindness and beneficence should be extended
to the creatures of every species, and these
will flow from the breast of a true man,
as streams that issue from the living fountain.

Plutarch



You should not honor men more than truth.
Plato



We are not living in a private world of our own.
Everything we say and do and think
has its effect on everything around us.

John Galsworthy



You either approve of violence or you don't,
and nothing on Earth is more violent
or extreme than the meat industry.

Morrissey





First, they ignore you, then they laugh at you,
then they fight you, then you win.

Mahatma Gandhi








I have seen firsthand how injustice
gets overlooked when the victims are
powerless or vulnerable, when they have
no one to speak up for them and no means of
representing themselves to higher authority.
Animals are in precisely that position.
Unless we speak out on their behalf,
abuse and cruelty goes unchallenged.

Desmond Tutu


The treatment of animals by the food industry
is so excessively heartless, and such an affront
to natural justice, that we who by our silence
tacitly consent to these outrages deserve to
be shocked out of our sleep. In the long run,
Mr. Yourofsky may well be doing us
a moral service by confronting us, by
the spectacle of the crimes we participate in.

John Maxwell Coetzee


If it's not good enough for your eyes,
why is it good enough for your stomach?

Gary Yourofsky


The truth will set you free.
But first, it will piss you off.

Gloria Steinem
