I became a vegetarian 3 years ago. ... The best thing about being a vegetarian for me, number one is I know I'm not harming any animals. ... The number two thing is increased strength. I'm a lot stronger than I was when I was eating meat. ... Most of your most powerful animals in the wild are vegetarian, so I'm trying to get my strength to that level. I don't know if I'll make it or not, but elephants are vegetarians. They're pretty big, so...

We catched fish, and talked, and we took a swim now and then to keep off sleepiness. It was kind of solemn, drifting down the big still river, laying on our backs looking up at the stars, and we didn't ever feel like talking loud, and it warn't often that we laughed, only a kind of low chuckle. We had mighty good weather, as a general thing, and nothing ever happened to us at all, that night, nor the next, nor the next.

When I stopped eating meat, I noticed that it was easier for me to focus, and I was really proud of myself for being green also. ... I had a plethora of reasons for going vegetarian. I was eating meat and didn't know how it affected my health .... I just felt better and brighter and lighter, and I had more energy .... It was a big deal to me, being an animal lover, that I realised what I was eating, and I didn't separate myself from, say, my animals, my pets.

Thirty-two years ago, I became a vegetarian. I always thought it was a bit weird eating dead bodies even though my parents said it was all right. But I saw "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre," and that did it. In the movie, they're doing the same thing to people that they do to animals, and so I gradually got off eating meat.... The health thing came way later. Veganism came four years ago, and it was more of a health decision.

With all the wonderful vegetarian foods available today, it doesn't take a mentalist to realize that eating meat just doesn't make sense anymore. It's not healthy, it's devastating to our planet, and it means a cruel and painful death for literally billions of animals every year. So why not give vegetarianism a try? You will have a lot more energy, you can lose weight, and best of all you will know that you are creating a better world for all the animals that live here.

I've been a vegetarian for 14 years now, and a lot of the time I avoid going to restaurants. I eat at home. ... I've never had any desire to eat meat. In fact, when I was a kid I would have a really difficult time eating meat at all. It had to be the perfect bite, with no fat or gristle or bone or anything like that.... I don't judge people who eat meat-that's not for me to say-but the whole thing just sort of bums me out.
