Jean-Jacques Rousseau Quotes About Animals

Quotes about: Animals

• The animals you eat are not those who devour others; you do not eat the carnivorous beasts, you take them as your pattern. You only hunger for the sweet and gentle creatures which harm no one, which follow you, serve you, and are devoured by you as the reward of their service.

  Jean-Jacques Rousseau

  Sweet, Philosophical, Animal

  Jean-Jacques Rousseau (2013). “Emile”, p.142, Courier Corporation

• Ruthless man: you begin by slaying the animal and then you devour it, as if to slay it twice. It is not enough. You turn against the dead flesh, it revolts you, it must be transformed by fire, boiled and roasted, seasoned and disguised with drugs; you must have butchers, cooks, turnspits, men who will rid the murder of its horrors, who will dress the dead bodies so that the taste decieved by these disguises will not reject what is strange to it, and will feast on corpses, the very sight of which would sicken you.

  Jean-Jacques Rousseau
