[Vegetarianism] changed my game, and it changed my body. I had tons of energy. - Ricky Williams

I've got a lot of experience with eating and with fasting. Part of the reason people fast, especially in a spiritual and religious context, is to understand that you don't need food as much as you think you do. … The main source of energy is the sun. … the energy we get from food is energy plants have metabolized through photosynthesis and then some animal eats it and it goes into the animal's tissue and then we eat their tissue. There are other ways to access energy. … The religions are many, but God is one. I believe based on what I've studied, all religions say the same thing but in different ways.

I wouldn’t eat a chicken if it dropped dead in front of me holding up a sign that said, ‘Eat Me.’
