" The whole dairy business is founded upon stealing : forcibly stealing calves from their mothers and forcibly stealing mother ’ s milk from those calves . We have become desensitized to just how incredibly cruel and unjust this truly is … The mother cow cannot fight the hands that steal her baby away or tell us in human words how terribly we are hurting her . And yet her enormous pain is patently obvious to anyone with eyes to see or ears to hear . For us to ignore her suffering and the suffering of her baby – hundreds , thousands , millions of times every day – is also to ignore and indeed to fully deny our own integrity & decency ." ~ inspired by Will Tuttle
“ It did not occur to me originally that the dairy industry was equally vile for animals . And yet once I saw firsthand the horror that veal calves endure , the emotional trauma that mother cows go through when their calves are taken from them ( not to mention when they are repeatedly & forcibly inseminated against their will ), and the sheer carnage of the slaughterhouse ( where all milk cows end up at a still young age ), dairy very easily became the next atrocity to cross off my list .” ~ inspired by Philip Wollen
