Famous vegans

I spotted a few quotes I quite liked by famous vegans in an article in The Independent, and I thought I'd share them.

Moby, the singer, who owns Teany, a vegan café in New York, said: "When I think of the fact that literally tens of billions of animals are killed nearly every year for human purposes, part of me wants to go out and join the Animal Liberation Front." Sometimes I feel like that, too.

Meanwhile, how about this from the poet Benjamin Zephaniah. When asked what he would eat if he was in a desert with no food in sight except a cow, he said: "I'd find out what the cow was eating and join it." Good answer. Unless the cow was dead, of course. But still a good answer.
