If you want to test cosmetics, why do it on some poor animal who hasn’t done anything? They should use prisoners who have been convicted of murder or rape instead. So, rather than seeing if perfume irritates a bunny rabbit’s eyes, they should throw it in Charles Manson’s eyes and ask him if it hurts. ― Ellen DeGeneres, My Point… And I Do Have One

Watch Katie Couric interview Ellen DeGeneres about going vegan. The book she refers to “Diet for a New America” by John Robbins is exactly why I went vegan too!

She also talks about Earthlings, an intense movie that I can’t bear to watch. If you have a partner or family member in your life who needs a little motivation to accept veganism – start with Earthlings.

Thank you Ellen, for shining a light for the animals!
