The concept that you are not ingesting rotting flesh sort of sums it up for me.

The greatest sin is to think that you are weak.

But you know, as a kid I would have thought of a vegetarian as a wimp.

Martyrdom covers a multitude of sins.

To become vegetarian is to step towards the stream which leads to nirvana.

Poverty, disease, sorrow, imprisonment and other evils are the fruits borne by the tree of one's own sins.
