- Change theme
Quotes by Jonathan Safran Foer
- We need a better way to talk about eating animals, a way that doesn't ignore or even just shruggingly accept things like habits, cravings, family and history but rather incorporates them into the conversation. The more they are allowed in, the more able we will be to follow our best instincts.
- We say no to lots of things that would please us. I would like to punch people every now and then, but I don't. I would like to have something for free rather than pay for it. I would like to skip to the front of the line... I don't mean to brush aside the taste of meat, which is a powerful attraction. But its power is not without limit.
- We've made science experiments of ourselves and our children.
- When it comes to meat, change is almost always cast as an absolute. You are a vegetarian or you are not.
- Why does watching a dog be a dog fill one with happiness?
- Words are capable of making experience more vivid, and also of organizing it. They can scare us, and they can comfort us.
- Writers now are putting total faith in designers at Apple and Amazon. It's almost like a race-car driver having no input into how cars are designed.
