To be vegan is to disagree with cruelty.

Isaac Bashevis Singer

Jo Frederiks

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.

a life where I'm not contributing to

the cruelty in the world.

We should consume in such a way that helps

to reduce the suffering of living beings.

compassion in our hearts.

are not products for our use.

💣 Unpopular Opinions & Controversial Figures 🔥

Freethinkers are those who are willing to

use their minds without prejudice and

without fearing to understand things that

 clash with their own customs, privileges,

or beliefs. This state of mind is not common,

but it is essential for right thinking.

Leo Tolstoy

Everything that irritates us about others

can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.

Carl Jung

In the country of the insane, the integrated man

doesn't become king. He gets lynched.

Aldous Huxley

If you do not say a thing in an irritating way,

you may as well not say it at all

because people will not trouble themselves

about anything that does not trouble them.

George Bernard Shaw

Those who are able to see beyond

the shadows and lies of their culture

will never be understood, let alone

believed, by the masses.

Plato

Free thinkers will always seem crazy to

those who can't see beyond conventions.

Never apologize for evolving

beyond people's comfort zone.

Albert Einstein

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...

Injustice results as much from treating unequals

equally as from treating equals unequally.

Aristotle

The minority is generelly formed by those who

really have an opinion, while the strenght

 of the majority is illusory, formed by 

the gangs who have no opinion.

Soren Kierkegaard

It's easy to stand in the crowd

but it takes courage to stand alone.

Mahatma Gandhi

Cowards can never be moral.

Mahatma Gandhi

The question is not whether we will be extremists,

but what kind of extremists we will be. For hate

or for the extension of justice?

Martin Luther King, Jr.

People's opinions are mainly designed to make

I don't want to talk, to communicate, with

someone who agrees with me; I want to

communicate with you because

you see it differently.

Stephen Covey

Two percent of the people think.

Three percent of the people think they think.

And ninty-five percent of the people

would rather die than think.

George Bernard Shaw

True morality consists not in following

the beaten track, but in finding the true path

for ourselves, and fearlessly following it.

Mahatma Gandhi

Progress is impossible without change,

and those who cannot change their minds

cannot change anything.

George Bernard Shaw

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world;

the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt

the world to himself. Therefore all progress

depends on the unreasonable man.

George Bernard Shaw

Slow Living

The good life is a process, not a state of being.

It's a direction, not a destination.

Carl R. Rogers

It's a dangerous conception of mental hygiene

to assume that what man needs is equilibrium.

What man actually needs is not a tensionless

state but rather a striving and struggling

for a worthwhile goal.

Viktor Frankl

Sustainable - Local - Organic - Whole

If I were asked for the most important advice

I could give, that which I considered to be

the most useful, I should simply say:

in the name of God, stop a moment,

cease your work, look around you.

Leo Tolstoy

Life is not a problem to be solved,

but a mystery to be lived.

Follow the path that is no path,

follow your bliss.

rather than the art of rowing.

Alan Watts

A quiet secluded life in the country,

with the possibility of being useful

to people to whom it is easy to do good, and

who are not accustomed to have it done to them;

then work which one hopes will be of some use;

then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's

neighbour - such is my idea of happiness.

Leo Tolstoy

A mind needs books like a sword needs

a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.

In that historical possibility lies hope.
