Man and animals are in reality vehicles and conduits of food, tombs of animals, hostels of Death, coverings that consume, deriving life by the death of others.

Our life is made by the death of others.

Knowledge of the past and of the places of the earth is the ornament and food of the mind of man.

As a day well spent brings blessed sleep, so a life well spent brings a blessed death.

I have from an early age abjured the use of meat, and the time will come when men such as I will look upon the murder of animals as they now look upon the murder of men.

As a well-spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well used brings happy death.
