The meat industry spends hundreds of millions of
dollars lying to the public about their product.
But no amount of false propaganda can
sanitise meat. The facts are absolutely clear.
Eating animals is bad for human health,
catastrophic for the environment and
a living nightmare for animals.
Chrissie Hynde
Ignorance is not a simple lack of knowledge
but an active aversion to knowledge,
the refusal to know, issuing from cowardice,
pride or laziness of mind.
Karl Popper
Those who see deeply into the nature of reality
often struggle to belong, because awareness
separates them from the illusions
that comfort others.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Most people are not seeking truth - they are
searching for comfort in illusions.
Friedrich Nietzsche

As with any violent ideology, the populace must
be shielded from direct exposure to the victims,
lest they begin questioning the system or their
participation in it. This truth speaks for itself:
why else would the meat industry go to such
lengths to keep its practices invisible?
Melanie Joy
We live in imaginary, virtual worlds created by
corporations that profit from our deception.
Chris Hedges
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
Truth never damages a cause that is just.
Mahatma Gandhi
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
Unless and until you are prepared to look
at the whole truth; and wherever it may go,
if you want to look the other way or
if you want to play favourites, then
somewhere along the line you're going to
find out that you're messing with divine justice.
Jordan Maxwell
Without ever committing an act of outright
evil ourselves, we collude with it
through our own apathy.
J.K. Rowling
What an amount of suffering the poor creatures
have to endure in order to give a few moments
of pleasure to men devoid of thought.
Albert Schweitzer
If slaughterhouses had glass walls,
everyone would be vegetarian.
Paul McCartney
Think occasionally of the suffering of which
you spare yourself the sight.
Albert Schweitzer
To examine whether something is 'humane',
first determine whether you would
want it done to you.
Andrea Kladar
The horrifying things that are happening
to animals in order for you to keep
eating meat is inhuman.
Lewis Hamilton
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 a higher authority.
Animals are in precisely that position.
Unless we speak out on their behalf,
abuse and cruelty goes unchallenged.
Desmond Tutu
There is no right way to do the wrong thing.
Harold S. Kushner
The greatest danger of lies is not that they
replace truth, but that they destroy our
ability to recognize truth at all,
leaving a society lost without direction.
Hannah Arendt
When the suffering of another creature causes
you to feel pain, do not submit to the initial
desire to flee from the suffering one, but
on the contrary, come closer, as close
as you can to him who suffers,
and try to help.
Leo Tolstoy
No man chooses evil because it is evil;
he only mistakes it for happiness,
the good he seeks.
Mary Wollstonecraft
