"We manage to swallow flesh, only because we do not think of the
cruel and sinful thing we do. If after our pity is aroused, we persist
in throttling our feelings simply in order to join others in preying
upon life, we insult all that is good in us. I've decided to try a
vegetarian diet."
"We manage to swallow flesh only because we do not think of the cruel
and sinful thing that we do. Cruelty....is a fundamental sin, and admits
of no arguments or nice distinctions. If only we do not allow our heart
to grow callous, it protests against cruelty, is always clearly heard;
and yet we go on perpetrating cruelties easily, merrily, all of us - in
fact, anyone who does not join in is dubbed a crank."
