The Bottom Line


1886:
One might consider the idea of veganism as a small raindrop landing on a duck’s back – the idea of it may easily enter the imagination but if it seems impossible, too painful, too daunting, then it’s likely we’ll shake off the raindrop, we’ll ditch the whole idea. Even if one had to contemplate a vegan lifestyle, why would we voluntarily opt for living ‘vegan’ if the pleasure of it still eluded us?



If you can’t come at ‘being vegan’, you can’t be much help to the animals, because if you’re not vegan it follows that you’re still eating them. How could you ever trust yourself? How could the animals ever trust you to be their cousin? You’d be quite the traitor if you were still helping to kill them whilst trying to save them.
