I became a vegetarian in 1958 and it was very difficult in those days to really maintain that because there weren’t many options. But, now, it’s a growing trend because the economics are there. See, there’s simply enough people demanding it that it’s profitable to supply vegetarians with those products.

To my mind, the life of a lamb is no less precious than that of a human being.  I should be unwilling to take the life of a lamb for the sake of the human body.

Rabindranath Tagore

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.
