"I dont think that animal rights is a political issue, as far as Im concerned its a humanist issue, its an anticruelty issue… In every way, the older I get, I try to conduct my life in a way that inflicts as little pain, as little cruelty and as much kindness on anyone, and when I say anyone that means humans and nonhumans as possible."

"I dont eat or wear animals and I have a pretty simple reason; because they are animals. They have lives, they feel pain, and I dont think they should give those lives nor feel pain for humans. As humans, we have the ability to understand that not only do we not need to eat meat; in fact we can live healthier lives without it."
