Citas de Karen Dawn

• Recuerda que el veganismo es un estilo de vida compasivo, no una religión punitiva. Disfrútalo. Y si las cosas se ponen difíciles, es mejor relajar las reglas de vez en cuando que abandonar el juego por completo.

• I met my first turkey at an animal sanctuary in 2000. The sanctuary owner brought out a turkey named Olivia who had been rescued from a factory farm. As I sat on the grass and reached out to pet her, she climbed into my lap and fell asleep. I was flabbergasted and charmed.

• Seriously, many people have told me they can't eat turkeys anymore after getting to know them. I think in the wider world, when the stories air on the media, they help banish the idea that birds, other than parrots, are somehow lesser.

• Indeed, a report from the United Nations has revealed that the livestock industry is the number-one contributor to global warming gasses - higher than even the transport industry. Plus, the effect of the livestock industry on our waterways and oceans is disastrous.

• It is important to meet people where they are. It reminds me of yoga, to which people may flock for the physical benefits, often to find that the spiritual benefits match or even outweigh them.

• Many people will first be attracted to veganism for their health but find themselves far more open to learning about the animal issues when they don't have to block them out three times a day in order to enjoy eating. Then once people learn, it is hard to forget and go back. Come for the body, stay for the soul.

• Algunas personas creen que los humanos tienen derecho a comer otros animales pero no a destrozar la Tierra. Puede que elijan el veganismo porque la huella ecológica de un vegano es leve, pero una vez que no invierten en comer animales, es más probable que estén dispuestos a aprender los detalles de lo que les ocurre. Ese aprendizaje animará a las personas compasivas a seguir una dieta basada en plantas.

• Cuando veo comida vegana vendida en envases de plástico de un solo uso, me frustra saber que el plástico no se recicla realmente; se degrada a grados cada vez menos reutilizables, y demasiado de él acaba finalmente en el océano, donde mata a los animales. Cuidar a los animales significa cuidar el entorno en el que viven, y viceversa.

• Mostly, I make sure to stay keenly aware of my own shortcomings so that I am more patient with others. It can be hard to see a friend order a cow-milk latte when almond or soy milk is available, knowing that the friend knows what dairy cows go through, how they mourn their babies, who have been carted off to veal crates so that we can steal their milk.

• Como soy demasiado humano, no siempre hago lo correcto, así que ¿cómo puedo esperar que los demás actúen a la perfección en los asuntos que son mi máxima prioridad? No quiero decir que no debamos intentar hacerlo lo mejor posible, pero juzgar y recriminar son pesos muy pesados. Me parece que aceptar que todos somos falibles aligera mi carga.

• Algunos parecemos haber nacido con el impulso de intentar hacer un mundo más amable. Cuando tenía veinte años y vivía en New York, trabajé en un comedor social todos los domingos durante muchos años, simplemente intentando hacer mi parte. Entonces leí Liberación Animal y me enteré de la existencia de granjas industriales y de la matanza de animales para limpiar hornos, y me di cuenta de que nadie necesitaba mi ayuda tanto como los animales.
