The person who kills for fun is announcing that, could he get away with it, he'd kill you for fun. Your...life may be of no consequence to anyone else but is invaluable to you because it's the only one you've got. Exactly the same is true of each individual deer, hare, rabbit, fox, fish, pheasant and butterfly. Humans should enjoy their own lives, not taking others'. - Brigid Brophy - British Writer (1929-1995)
Whenever people say "we mustn't be sentimental", you can take it they are about to do something cruel. And if they add, "we must be realistic", they mean they are going to make money out of it. - Brigid Brophy
I was once asked why I don't participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I'll be there. - Mother Teresa (1910 - 1997)

Outreach volunteers make a difference
I am hopeful that we are making progress, that we are creating vegans faster than they are creating non-vegans! - Dr. Ruth Heidrich, Read EVEN's exclusive interview with Dr. Ruth HERE.
If we continue to address the issue of the environment where we live as though we're the only species that lives here, we'll create a disaster for ourselves. - Gaylord Nelson, politician, founder of Earth Day (1916 - 2005)

I spoke often in Congress against the war in Vietnam and commented on congresspersons hiding from the reality of war by saying 'many eat the meat but few go to the slaughterhouse'. I said it so often I became a vegetarian. - Rep. Andrew Jacobs
I hope to make people realize how totally helpless animals are, how dependent on us, trusting as a child must that we will be kind and take care of their needs ...[They] are an obligation put on us, a responsibility we have no right to neglect, nor to violate by cruelty. - James Herriot (1916 - )
