Superb quotes and stirs to re-evaluate and be responsible... I feel a lot better when going without meat... as long as one plans carefully one can get adequate nutrition and there is way less suffering and cost to precious living creatures... An important and ethical choice

I love this one the best, "Animals are my friends... and I don't eat my friends.” — George Bernard Shaw...... true Ken, we humans should be ashamed of ourselves for the savage way in which we treat animals.
