I hope that one day you will have the experience of doing something you do not understand for someone you love.

There are more obese people in the world than starving people. As China and India start to develop our eating habits - and not by accident but because agribusiness is going over there and imposing our habits on them - if the population doesn't increase at all, we'll have to raise twice as many animals as we do.

Chickens can do many things, but they cannot make sophisticated deals with humans.

We shouldn't be intimidated by someone else's idea of perfection if it will prevent us from taking steps we actively want to take.

Only someone who'd never been an animal would put up a sign saying not to feed them.

I like to see people reunited, I like to see people run to each other, I like the kissing and the crying, I like the impatience, the stories that the mouth can't tell fast enough, the ears that aren't big enough, the eyes that can't take in all of the change, I like the hugging, the bringing together, the end of missing someone.

We are breeding creatures incapable of surviving in any place other than the most artificial settings. We have focused the awesome power of modern genetic knowledge to bring into being animals that suffer more.
