Famous Jon Hochschartner Quotes

“Thus my Greenprint for Animal Liberation is a combination of vegan outreach and support for the Green Party and I would urge every single person who yearns for animal liberation to do the following in order to help achieve it: (1) Join your local vegan outreach group (or, if there isn’t one, form one) and start educating members of the public to go vegan. (2) Join your local Green Party and help them with the process of getting people elected both at a local and a national level. ~ Ronnie Lee”

“If you or I were to see somebody in the street beating a dog, and we said “please don’t beat your dog,” but he carried on beating the dog, we would have to use some force—which could be defined as violence—to stop that from happening. Now would that be wrong? I’d say of course it wouldn’t. And I don’t see the difference, in moral terms, between someone beating their dog in the street and somebody torturing an animal in a laboratory. ~ Ronnie Lee”
