More quotes by Ingrid Newkirk
Medical research is immoral even it it's essential.
Ingrid Newkirk
Businesses are terrified. They have no idea what I'm going to do next.
Ingrid Newkirk
Eventually companion animals would be phased out, and we would return to a more symbiotic relationship - enjoyment at a distance.
Ingrid Newkirk
It is only human supremacy, which is as unacceptable as racism and sexism, that makes us afraid of being more inclusive.
Ingrid Newkirk
Since we can't count on the meat, egg, and dairy industries to protect animals from the most egregious forms of cruelty, what can we, as consumers, do? Opting out of paying someone to allow animals to die in a barn fire or at the slaughterhouse seems pretty reasonable.
Ingrid Newkirk
Pigeons are gentle and smart and have complex social relationships. Their hearing and vision are both excellent.
Ingrid Newkirk
Fortified plant-based milks are delicious and contain all the calcium, protein, and vitamin D of dairy products but with none of the cholesterol, lactose, hormones, or cruelty found in cow's milk.
Ingrid Newkirk
Pet ownership is an absolutely abysmal situation brought about by human manipulation.
Ingrid Newkirk
Society is celebrity-based and we are determined to use [celebrities'] voices to make sure no one forgets there are issues over the use of animals. Celebrities can be great for our cause and can really make people sit up and think for the first time about animal abuse.
Ingrid Newkirk
Pet ownership is slavery. Animals are not ours to eat, wear, experiment on, or be entertained by.
Ingrid Newkirk
When it comes to having a central nervous system, and the ability to feel pain, hunger, and thirst, a rat is a pig is a dog is a boy.
Ingrid Newkirk
Never doubt that one person can make a difference.
Ingrid Newkirk
Although we have, in theory, abolished human slavery, recognized women's rights, and stopped child labor, we continue to enslave other species who, if we simply pay attention, show quite clearly that they experience parental love, pain, and the desire for freedom, just as we do.
Ingrid Newkirk
When I hear of anyone walking into a lab and walking out with animals, my heart sings.
Ingrid Newkirk
It's the 21st century. It's healthier for us, better for the environment and certainly kinder to be a vegetarian.
Ingrid Newkirk
A lot of people have culturally induced ethical blindness, but they can be cured!
Ingrid Newkirk
Consumers of meat, eggs and dairy products might well ask what they are supporting. Do farmers care about anyone but themselves? Can't anyone see the cow for the cheese?
Ingrid Newkirk
Cheap meat is the problem. The answer is to replace meat recipes with vegan meals.
Ingrid Newkirk
If my father had a heart attack it would give me no solace at all to know his treatment was first tried on a dog.
Ingrid Newkirk
...no movement for social change has ever succeeded without 'the militarism component'....Thinkers may prepare revolutions, but bandits must carry them out
