Meat Quotes - Page 34

• La distinción entre carne y otros productos animales es un sinsentido total. El vegetarianismo es una postura moralmente incoherente. Si consideras a los animales como miembros de la comunidad moral, realmente no tienes más remedio que hacerte vegano.

• Meat is necessary when there is hard physical work to be done, or in a very cold climate, or when edible plants cannot be found...Animal flesh provides all the substances we need, both for the intensive working of our organism and for maintaining a normal temperature in cold climates.

• That's the trouble with the world we live in. It's full of people just doing their job and ignoring what's really going on. Care about the rainforest until they get a couple of kids and enough money for a gas guzzling car, or some hardwood dining furniture. Watch all those wildlife programmes and coo over the furry animals, but still eat meat and poultry that was raised in conditions of unbelievable cruelty.

• Para mí, la vida sin caldo de ternera, grasa de cerdo, salchichas, vísceras, demi-glace o incluso queso apestoso es una vida que no merece la pena vivir. Los vegetarianos son enemigos de todo lo bueno y decente del espíritu humano, una afrenta a todo lo que yo defiendo, el puro disfrute de la comida.

• Si alguien quiere salvar el planeta, lo único que tiene que hacer es dejar de comer carne. Es lo más importante que se puede hacer. Es asombroso cuando lo piensas. El vegetarianismo se ocupa de tantas cosas de un solo golpe: ecología, hambruna, crueldad.

• The value of the myth is that it takes all the things we know and restores to them the rich significance which has been hidden by ‘the veil of familiarity.’ The child enjoys his cold meat, otherwise dull to him, by pretending it is buffalo, just killed with his own bow and arrow. And the child is wise. The real meat comes back to him more savory for having been dipped in a story…by putting bread, gold, horse, apple, or the very roads into a myth, we do not retreat from reality: we rediscover it.

• Fantasy is silver and scarlet, indigo and azure, obsidian veined with gold and lapis lazuli. Reality is plywood and plastic, done up in mud brown and olive drab. Fantasy tastes of habaneros and honey, cinnamon and cloves, rare red meat and wines as sweet as summer. Reality is beans and tofu, and ashes at the end.

• No. I took this job in self-defense. Quain burns everything. Belen thinks jerky is all we need to survive. Flea's idea of a good meal is something that hasn't been in a garbage can first. And Kerrick poisoned us-' 'Not on purpose,' Kerrick said. 'The meat looked done.

• I feel closer ties and more intimate bonds with certain characters in books, with certain images I’ve seen in engravings, than with many supposedly real people with the metaphysical absurdity known as ‘flesh and blood’. In fact, ‘flesh and blood’ describes them very well: they resemble cuts of meat laid out on the butcher’s marble slab, dead creatures bleeding as though still alive.

• Life cannot be cut off quickly. One cannot be dead until the things he changed are dead. His effect is the only evidence of his life. While there remains even a plaintive memory, a person cannot be cut off, dead. And he thought, “It’s a long slow process for a human to die. We kill a cow, and it is dead as soon as the meat is eaten, but a man’s life dies as a commotion in a still pool dies, in little waves, spreading and growing back toward stillness.

• You’re joining us for dinner, I hope?” asked his mom. She was small and brunette and vaguely mousy. “I guess?” I said. “I have to be home by ten. Also I don’t, um, eat meat?” “No problem. We’ll vegetarianize some,” she said. “Animals are just too cute?” Gus asked. “I want to minimize the number of deaths I am responsible for,” I said. Gus opened his mouth to respond but then stopped himself.

• People may hope that the meat they buy came from an animal who died without pain, but they do not really want to know about it. Yet those who, by their purchases, require animals to be killed do not deserve to be shielded from this or any other aspect of the production of the meat they buy.

• Es una gran locura creer que las armas nucleares sólo son mortales si se utilizan. El hecho de que existan, su presencia en nuestras vidas, causará más estragos de los que podemos imaginar. Las armas nucleares impregnan nuestro pensamiento. Controlan nuestro comportamiento. Administran nuestras sociedades. Informan nuestros sueños. Se entierran como ganchos de carne en la base de nuestros cerebros. Son proveedoras de locura. Son los colonizadores por excelencia. Más blancos que cualquier hombre blanco que haya existido. El corazón mismo de la blancura.
