Albert Einstein pronait le végétarisme

The latest indications we have suggest that Einstein was vegetarian only for the last year or so of his life, though he appears to have supported the idea for many years before practising it himself.

Einstein et le végétarisme

Dans la lignée de ses prises de position pacifistes et avant-gardistes, Albert Einstein soutenait la cause végétarienne. Il considérait le végétarisme comme un idéal…
It is my view that the vegetarian manner of living by its purely physical effect on the human temperament would most beneficially influence the lot of mankind.
Il considérait le végétarisme comme un idéal sans pourtant le pratiquer lui-même (jusqu’a un an ou deux avant sa mort) malgré quelques problèmes de conscience (Einstein Archive 60-058).

Il considérait principalement les raisons de santé mais croyait également à l’effet bénéfique du régime végétarien sur le tempérament des hommes. (Lettre à Hermann Huth, 27 décembre 1930. Einstein Archive 46-756).

C’est seulement un an ou deux avant sa mort qu’il mit en pratique ce régime (Lettre à Hans Muehsam, du 30 mars 1954).

Einstein le savait! Alors si tu n’es pas encore végé, qu’attends-tu ? :)

En terminant voici quelques quotes de notre cher ami Albert Einstein:

“What is the meaning of human life, or, for that matter, of the life of any creature? To know an answer to this question means to be religious. You ask: Does it make any sense, then, to pose this question? I answer: The man who regards his own life and that of his fellow creatures as meaningless is not merely unhappy but hardly fit for life.”

“Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet. ”

“Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from that of their social environment. ”

“It is easier to denature plutonium than to denature the evil spirit of man.”

“The important thing is not to stop questioning.”

“Only a life lived for others is a life worth living!”
