The misery we inflict on sentient beings slackens our human evolution.

Vegetarianism in the Light of Theosophy (1913)

If people want to eat meat, they should kill the animals for themselves... Nor should they say that if they did not do it the slaughter would still go on... Every person who eats meat takes a share in that degradation of his fellow-men; on him and on her personally lies the share, and personally lies the responsibility.
