animal love

Please check out my Why Vegan page which explains why I chose the vegan lifestyle.

The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way it treats its animals.
— Mahatma Gandhi

Humanity is accruing an enormous debt of karma by its treatment of animals.
— Eckhart Tolle

If we could live happy and healthy lives without harming others, why wouldn't we?
— Edgar's Mission
