What's Wrong With Wool? 🐏

To be vegan is to disagree with cruelty.

Isaac Bashevis Singer

Jo Frederiks

If one person is unkind to an animal

it is considered to be cruelty,

but if a lot of people are unkind to animals

(especially in the name of profit)

the cruelty is condoned and will be defended

by otherwise intelligent people.

Ruth Harrison

Veganism is not a diet.

a life where I'm not contributing to

Jessica Chastain

I am determined not to kill, not to let others kill,

and not to support any act of killing in the world.

We should consume in such a way that helps

to reduce the suffering of living beings.

And that way we can preserve

compassion in our hearts.

The world is not a factory and animals

are not products for our use.
