Carnivorous Quotes
“Carnivorous, adj. Addicted to the cruelty of devouring the timorous vegetarian, his heirs and assigns.”
Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)
'The Devil's Dictionary' (1911)
“Man is a carnivorous production,
And must have meals, at least one meal a day;
He cannot live, like woodcocks, upon suction,
But, like the shark and tiger, must have prey;
Although his anatomical construction
Bears vegetables, in a grumbling way,
Your laboring people think beyond all question,
Beef, veal, and mutton better for digestion.”
Lord Byron (1788-1824) Don Juan
