Desmond Tutu Quote

If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.

- Desmond Tutu


Brigitte Bardot Quote

One should not eat foie gras. It is a cruel, inhumane, tradition and, as all traditions synonymous with suffering, it should be ended

"We kill-clever apes have invented some pretty disgusting ways of abusing animals over the course of time, but the method of producing Foie Gras must rank as one of the most heinous of all. How people can put that 'agony pate' down their throats is anathema to me." - Patricia Glyn

"Much like veal, if you eat foie gras you are essentially ingesting a product that can only be produced by extreme cruelty. You ingest the stress hormones that the animal produces, and you in turn feed that toxin into your body." - Dion Chang

I believe the sale and production of foie gras as a culinary delicacy in South Africa should be banned on the grounds of animal cruelty. I challenge all chefs and food critics to take the no foie gras pledge
- Graham Howe, food and wine editor, gourmet columnist for many publications.
