All consumption should be local. No food products need to be transported over hundreds of miles to market. All commercial fishing should be abolished. If local communities need to fish the fish should be caught individually by hand. We need to stop flying, stop driving cars, and jetting around on marine recreational vehicles. (Paul Watson Quotes)

I have never suffered under any delusion that saving the whales in the Antarctic sanctuary would be easy, but the one thing I am certain of is that I and my passionate crew of international volunteers will never quit defending life in the seas from poachers, no matter what consequences we must endure to do so. (Paul Watson Quotes)
Canada I don’t trust. The Canadian government hates me more than the Japanese. (Paul Watson Quotes)
We don’t give a damn what you or anybody else on this planet thinks. We didn’t sink those ships for you. We did it for the whales. (Paul Watson Quotes)
We are literally eating the oceans alive and there are simply not enough fish to continue to feed an ever expanding population of humanity. (Paul Watson Quotes)

The Polynesians used to have a system where they proclaimed a fishing area as ‘taboo.’ If any fisherman was caught fishing in a taboo area, they would be killed. The Polynesians understood that the fish had to be given a chance to recover. (Paul Watson Quotes)
Greenpeace is the world’s largest feel-good organisation now, and I can say that ‘cause I am one of their co-founders. (Paul Watson Quotes)
