Make vegan friends! It’s a tough row to hoe doing it alone.  (Tom Regan Quotes) I would encourage them never to forget that they were not always vegans. The self-righteousness of the recently converted hurts, it does not help, other animals  (Tom Regan Quotes) In a perfect world, we would not keep animals for our benefit, including pets,  (Tom Regan Quotes) If abandoning animal research means that there are some things we cannot learn, then so be it ... We have no basic right ... not to be harmed by those natural diseases we are heir to.  (Tom Regan Quotes) Even granting that we [humans] face greater harm than laboratory animals presently endure if ... research on these animals is stopped, the animal rights view will not be satisfied with anything less than total abolition.  (Tom Regan Quotes) There is no question in my mind: reading Gandhi’s autobiography changed my life  (Tom Regan Quotes) In a perfect world, we would not keep animals for our benefit, including pets  (Tom Regan Quotes) If abandoning animal research means that there are some things we cannot learn, then so be it... We have no basic right... not to be harmed by those natural diseases we are heir to  (Tom Regan Quotes) Being kind to animals is not enough. Avoiding cruelty is not enough. Housing animals in more comfortable, larger cages is not enough. Whether we exploit animals to eat, to wear, to entertain us, or to learn, the truth of animal rights requires empty cages, not larger cages  (Tom Regan Quotes) The other animals humans eat, use in science, hunt, trap, and exploit in a variety of ways, have a life of their own that is of importance to them apart from their utility to us. They are not only in the world, they are aware of it. What happens to them matters to them. Each has a life that fares better or worse for the one whose life it is  (Tom Regan Quotes) It is not larger, cleaner cages that justice demands... but empty cages; not traditional animal agriculture but a complete end to all commerce in the flesh of dead animals; not more humane hunting and trapping, but the total eradication of these barbarous practices  (Tom Regan Quotes) It is not an act of kindness to treat animals respectfully. It is an act of justice  (Tom Regan Quotes) What could be the basis of our having more inherent value than animals? Their lack of reason, or autonomy, or intellect? Only if we are willing to make the same judgment in the case of humans who are similarly deficient  (Tom Regan Quotes) All great movements, it is written, go through three stages: ridicule, discussion, adoption. It is the realisation of this third stage, adoption, that requires our passion and our discipline, our hearts and our heads. The fate of animals is in our hands  (Tom Regan Quotes)
