We should be rolling in the dirt, gardening, wrestling with some brambles and skinning animals for supper. These are important immune system builders.

The cycle of life is death, decomposition and regeneration, and a person who wants to stop killing animals is actually anti-life because it's only in death that life can be regenerated.

Don't you find it odd that people will put more work into choosing their mechanic or house contractor than they will into choosing the person who grows their food?

I see myself today as Sitting Bull trying to bring a voice of Easternism, holism, community-based thinking to a very Western culture.

Even if you don't eat at a fast food restaurant, you're now eating food that's produced by this system.

Get in your kitchens, buy unprocessed foods, turn off the TV, and prepare your own foods. This is liberating.

Amazingly, we’ve become a culture that considers Twinkies, Cocoa Puffs, and Mountain Dew safe, but raw milk and compost-grown tomatoes unsafe.

You, as a food buyer, have the distinct privilege of proactively participating in shaping the world your children will inherit.

If every American for one week refused to eat at a fast-food joint, it would bring concentrated animal feeding operations to their knees.

The average person is still under the aberrant delusion that food should be somebody else's responsibility until I'm ready to eat it.

If you think the price of organic food is expensive, have you priced cancer lately.

The real scientist is ready to bear privation and, if need be, starvation rather than let anyone dictate to him which direction his work must take.

There are some who'd hardly lift a finger for kindness, but they would haul up a load of rock to dump on some soul they think's been too lucky.

From now on, I'll connect the dots my own way.

I like to move. Because that's where the action comes from.

The finest friendships are between those who can do without each other.

I'm an average nobody. I get to live the rest of my life like a schnook.

Greater dooms win greater destinies.

All alone by the telephone.

So dawn goes down today... Nothing gold can stay. -- Robert Frost
