Whatever we'll be forced to do later, we should be doing now.
If you don't generate tension in the film to begin with... you can't really make a purse out of a sow's ear, you know.
I think there will come a time when civilized people will look back in horror on our generation and the ones that have preceded it; the idea that we should eat other living things running around on four legs, that we should raise them just for the purpose of killing them! The people of the future will say 'meat-eaters' in disgust and regard us in the same way that we regard cannibals and cannibalism.
When I was a kid, we never heard of smog, ozone depletion, acid rain, green house gasses.
If we were driving pure hydrogen automobiles, that automobile would actually help clean up the air because the air coming out of the exhaust would be cleaner than the air going into the engine intake.
If we had a hydrogen economy worldwide, every nation on earth could create its own energy source to support its economy, and the threat of war over diminishing resources would just evaporate.
Changing mass consciousness is an individual responsibility.
When we realize we can make a buck cleaning up the environment, it will be done!
We don't have to sacrifice a strong economy for a healthy environment.
We're the only species that have crapped up the planet and the only species that can clean it up.
The people of the future will say, 'meat-eaters!' in disgust and regard us in the same way that we regard cannibals and cannibalism.
The wise person understands that his own happiness must include the happiness of others.
We should be able to support our own economy within our own borders.
Years ago on the set of Gunsmoke I read the book The Holy Science. Since then I have not eaten meat.
