It occurred to me that I just didn't see how I could go ahead and continue to eat meat. It just seemed so... cannibalistic to me. And so, I'm a vegetarian, and I have been ever since.

Way back in the 1970s, I was eating a steak, and I looked down, and for the first time it suddenly looked like flesh to me - like a dead creature. In a flash, I realized that every time I ate any kind of meat, something had been killed for me, and I stopped eating all animals, not just cows and pigs but chickens and fish.

I could never stop eating meat... I'm not a good person to talk about diets. If I had to only eat salads, I'd kill myself!

I enjoy meat, but I can do without it.

I'm not strictly vegetarian, but meat doesn't play a big part in my diet.

I became a vegetarian after I became aware of factory farming and slaughterhouses and the torture and inhumane handling of all these animals.

I don't eat red meat.

I prefer to die rather than eat beef.
