Joie de vivre (French pronunciation: ​[ʒwa də vivʁ], joy of living) is a French phrase often used in English to express a cheerful enjoyment of life; an exultation of spirit.

Ethics, too, are nothing but reverence for life. That is what gives me the fundamental principle of morality, namely, that good consists in maintaining, promoting, and enhancing life, and that destroying, injuring, and limiting life are evil.

Albert Schweitzer

Their capacity for joy equals or exceeds our own. They feel happiness and loneliness and fear and anxiety and love. To deny them only the pleasurable of these experiences is the pettiest of cruelties, locking them away for a short life of pain and torment, all for a quick taste of cheese or milk or flesh or a fashionable pair of boots.

What gives you the right? How do you justify this? Can you? Do you even try? Or do you write this off as sentimentality?

Stop ignoring your victims. Go vegan.
