... man was not born a carnivorous animal, but born to live on the fruits and herbs that the earth grows. i know we must all err. i would give up milk if i could, but i cannot. i have made that experiment times without number. i could not, after a serious illness, regain my strength, unless i went back to milk. that has been the tragedy of my life. but the basis of my vegetarianism is not physical, but moral. if anybody said that i should die if i did not take beef tea or mutton, even on medical advice, i would prefer death. that is the basis of my vegetarianism.
