This Little Boy's Stance on Vegetarianism Will Make Your Heart Melt

Sitting in front of a bowl of octopus gnocchi, Luiz Antonio innocently realizes that he wants to be a vegetarian. In a conversation with his mother — who is encouraging Luiz to eat the octopus — he slowly comes to the realization that he doesn't want to eat animals and says, "I don't like that they die. I like that they keep standing, and happy." His mother gets emotional at his young wisdom, and when Luiz asks why, she tells him, "I'm not crying . . . I'm just touched by you." Heart. Melt.
