“Not at all. It makes sense.
Hard to find people that practice what they preach these days;
your heart’s in the right place.”[ it’s a firm statement of his approval;
simon likes people that hold selfless values

“I eat nuts, berries, plants.
Anything the forest can provide
but I must confess I kill animals to
eat but I believe although my cause
cannot be justified I honour those I hunt.”
