Georges Laraque quotes

Animals deserve to be treated with kindness. I love animals, and I don't believe humans can treat them as commodities and cause them harm. ... I officially became a vegan on June 1, 2009. Even though it's quite a change in terms of nutrition, I have never felt better or so healthy in my life. Considering that I'm a professional athlete, that's quite important ... I understand the impact I have in joining many groups like PETA. I don't do it to force people to be vegetarian or vegan. I just want to educate people on the subject to make this world a better place. ... Many people ... refuse to get educated on the matter because just like me, they're sensitive and afraid to make a change. But my friends, that change is not bad at all. ... Millions of people around the globe are going vegetarian for the sake of animals, their health and the environment. I encourage you to give it a try too! (Georges Laraque)
