About this quote

Growth eventually turns the lens on appetite. At some point convenience stops being reason enough to cause a death, and the question becomes whether a want is worth the harm behind it. It reads less like a rule imposed from outside than a line you arrive at from within.

When to use it

• Choosing plant-based meals after really thinking about where the food comes from.
• Refusing to buy a product made in ways that hurt animals.
• Giving up a small comfort once you realize someone else pays for it.
