Quantcast Vegetarian StarMeatless Mouthful–Morrissey Says Learn From Animals

Morrissey

“I think we have so much to learn from the animal kingdom. Instead, they are shot and gassed and farmed and eaten, and only humans do this to them! Animals don’t start wars or destroy the planet or create cancers or pollute or over-populate. Humans, by comparison, are a mess. You can also tell so much about a person by their treatment of animals. A woman in a fur-coat might as well carry a sign saying ‘I am an idiot.’ How women — and it’s usually women — can wear fur, whilst knowing how it’s manufactured, is absolutely bewildering to me. The human race is rarely humane.”

Morrissey, during an interview discussing his views on vegetarianism and animal rights. The former member of The Smiths who sang “Meat Is Murder” has been vegetarian since age 11.

    Morrissey has influenced thousands of his fans to become vegetarian including Radiohead’s Thom Yorke. He warrants approbation for his longtime support for animal rights.
