About this Quote

Grace Slick is making a moral argument that animals are sentient beings and should not be consumed in big amounts. She acknowledges that this is a tough concept for some to accept, but she believes that humans are not designed to consume a lot of meat.

Grace Slick's quote is a pointer that animals are living creatures with feelings and need to not be treated as simple products. It is a call to action for people to be more conscious of their dietary options and to think about the ethical implications of their food usage.
