• You know how most people think that eggs are great sources of protein? Well, you only get about six grams from an egg, and about half of that is in the yolk and the other half is in the white. If instead you opt for a cup of lentils, you get a whopping eighteen grams of protein, plus all that fiber that makes you feel full and cleans out your body!

• People are simply screwing up when they go out and buy beef steak, which is killing them with cancer and heart troubles. The stuff costs a fortune too. You could feed a thousand people with lentil soup for the cost of half a dozen filets. Does that make sense?

• Mi comida favorita de otoño o invierno son los grandes platos de sopa humeantes. Suelo invitar a la gente sobre las 12.30 y tomar dos sopas sustanciosas, como la sopa de gambas y maíz y la sopa de lentejas y salchichas, que se pueden preparar con uno o dos días de antelación.

• Es un gran engaño suponer que la carne de cualquier tipo es esencial para la salud. Considerablemente más de tres partes del trabajo en el mundo es realizado por hombres que nunca prueban nada más que alimentos vegetales, farináceos, y de la clase más simple. La harina integral, los guisantes, las habas, las lentejas, la avena, las raíces y otros vegetales de la misma clase tienen más propiedades para producir fuerza que la carne de vaca o cordero, las aves de corral o el pescado, o cualquier otro alimento animal.

• Todos hemos visto durante años que el pollo se presenta como la alternativa baja en grasas y cardiosaludable a la carne roja, pero ya no tiene sentido.

• Every November, during the certain holiday people love so much, people take a dead turkey, open up the dead turkey’s ass, or carve out a really big hole in their ass, take some stuffing and shove it inside their dead empty ass, and use the little dead ass as an oven to bake some bread. Somebody else’s dead empty bacteria-laden ass to make bread? Ass bread?! And people think vegans are weird? Because we eat tofu? And rice, and beans, and lentils?

• I wasn't eating the right kinds of calories. I didn't know about healthy carbs such as brown rice and lentils. Now I eat small meals throughout the day: oatmeal with cinnamon to start, fruit and yogurt as a snack, and vegetables or with chicken or tuna, and a healthy carb, like a yam, for lunch.

• Outward, thanks to the knowledge of physical laws, man could subdue (or subjugate...) nature, but inwardly, he remained a slave to it. For, when all is said and done, at what is aiming all this display (or deployment) of activity, if not to realized outward profits, to provide material pleasure (or enjoyment).
