Peter Singer
“Until we boycott meat, and all other products of animal factories, we are, each one of us, contributing to the continued existence, prosperity, and growth of factory farming and all the other cruel practices used in rearing animals for food.”
― Peter Singer, Animal Liberation

Sigmund Freud
“Human beings are funny. They long to be with the person they love but refuse to admit openly. Some are afraid to show even the slightest sign of affection because of fear. Fear that their feelings may not be recognized, or even worst, returned. But one thing about human beings puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it kills them slowly within.”
― Sigmund Freud
tags: love

Saul D. Alinsky
“The greatest enemy of individual freedom is the individual himself.”
― Saul Alinsky

Peter Singer
“By ceasing to rear and kill animals for food, we can make so much extra food available for humans that, properly distributed, it would eliminate starvation and malnutrition from this planet. Animal Liberation is Human Liberation too.”
― Peter Singer, Animal Liberation

Peter Singer
“It is a mistake to assume that the law should always enforce morality.”
― Peter Singer, Practical Ethics
