Different people Quote by Jonathan Safran Foer
““Different people will draw the line in different places with regard to farms like Paul’s and Frank’s. People I respect draw it differently. But for me, for now —for my family now —my concerns about the reality of what meat is and has become are enough to make me give it up altogether.””
