More quotes by Sharon Gannon
Vegan food is not only good for you, the animals, and the planet, but cooking vegan can be simple, easy, and fun.
Sharon Gannon
Farm animals, like dairy cows - who by nature are vegans - are routinely force-fed fish to increase their weight and milk production.
Sharon Gannon
It is true that every being is enjoying life or suffering as a direct result of his or her own past actions. The animals in the factory farms may have been meat-eating human beings in a previous birth we don't know, and it is not our place to judge.
Sharon Gannon
How we treat others will determine how others treat us, and how others treat us will determine who we are.
Sharon Gannon
Live with the anticipation that something incredible might happen at any time.
Sharon Gannon
We are the only animals who steal and drink the milk from other species.
Sharon Gannon
Lions and other carnivorous animals do a lot of things besides eat meat. They live outdoors, not in houses they don't wear clothes or drive around in cars they usually sleep for many hours after eating a meal. Why cite just one of the many things that they do and argue that we should imitate them? This doesn't make much sense.
Sharon Gannon
Enlightenment is the realization of the oneness of being, where otherness disappears.
Sharon Gannon
To be political actually means to care about your community.
Sharon Gannon
We create the world we live in. If we want to change what we don't like in the world, we must start by changing what we don't like about ourselves.
Sharon Gannon
In fact, studies show that vegans tend to get more iron than meat eaters. Vitamin C from fruits and vegetables increases iron absorption. Meanwhile, dairy products reduce iron absorption significantly.
Sharon Gannon
I'm totally into veganism and animal rights, but I'm not into being an angry and judgmental activist.
Sharon Gannon
Cows that are fed organic food are still kept as slaves on farms, regardless of whether it is a large corporate factory farm or a small family farm. Besides, every dairy cow, no matter what she has been fed, has her babies stolen from her shortly after birth and she will inevitably end up in the slaughterhouse.

Everything we do should contribute to happiness.
Sharon Gannon
You cannot do yoga. Yoga is your natural state. What you can do are yoga exercises, which may reveal to you where you are resisting your natural state.
Sharon Gannon
What we see in the world around us is just a reflection of what is inside of us.
Sharon Gannon
Don't try to do this by yourself: to become a good yogi you need a teacher. Find a teacher you can bow to, who can teach you how to be kind - how to serve others - because the key to enlightenment lies in that. Be humble, work hard, study and practice. Chant the Name of God, do japa and meditate, every day.
Sharon Gannon
Yoga is many things to many people, but in its full potential the practice of yoga can provide the means to transform suffering into happiness and Suzanne Bryant's film YOGA IS shows us this path.

Fishing is not a benign activity it is hunting in the water.

Eating a vegetarian diet can contribute more to saving ourselves and the planet than any other single effort.
