It doesn't matter what is true, it only matters what people believe is true.
Paul Watson
Be a voice for the future and a voice for the planet.
Paul Watson
Once we get three more directors elected, the Sierra Club will no longer be pro-hunting and pro-trapping and we can use the resources of the $95-million-a-year budget to address some of these issues.
Paul Watson
I've had a lot of disappointments. I think my biggest disappointment is the failure of elected officials to make good on their promises in regards to the environment or anything else, really. I have very little faith in politicians.
Paul Watson
We don't give a damn what you or anybody else on this planet thinks. We didn't sink those ships for you. We did it for the whales.
Paul Watson
We're just a conceited, naked ape. But in our minds we're some sort of divine legend, and we see ourselves as some sort of god. That we can walk around the earth deciding who will live and who will die and what will be destroyed and what will be saved. But the fact is we're just a bunch of primates out of control.
Paul Watson
A vegan riding a hummer contributes less to greenhouse gas emissions than a meat eater riding a bicycle.
Paul Watson
I’ve got no criminal record.

This is the contradiction we have in the media. We love vigilantes: Batman, Tarzan, Green Arrow - the comic books and the TV shows are filled with vigilantes. We love to promote it. Jesus Christ was a vigilante. We admire these people, but we don't want to be associated with them.
Paul Watson
I have hope that humanity will be cured of our collective ecological insanity and that we adapt to living within the boundaries of the laws of ecology.
Paul Watson
We go after unlawful activities.
Paul Watson
You can't love nature with a gun
Paul Watson
My position is this. If we can't protect sanctuaries, if we can't save the whales, the sharks, the fish, our oceans will die.
Paul Watson
You cannot commit an act of violence against a non-sentient object, only against a living thing.
Paul Watson
Pigs eat more tuna than all the planet's sharks combined.
Paul Watson
They [Japanese whalers] haven't produced a single peer-reviewed international scientific paper in 23 years.
Paul Watson
Musicians have the power to influence people and along with movie makers, they can reach and influence more people than any group of people, more than scientists and certainly more than politicians.
Paul Watson
Social change comes through people.
Paul Watson
There's nothing wrong with being a terrorist, as long as you win. Then you write history.
Paul Watson
To slaughter grand and beautiful creatures like these tuskers, whether terrestrial or marine, solely to obtain a few teeth indicates that we have not evolved very much since the days our forebears lived in caves and saught to prove their superiority by adorning themselves with teeth and claws
