Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Although Louisa May Alcott is in many famous vegetarians lists, she probably wasn't a vegetarian. It appears that although she was raised a vegetarian by her father Amos Bronson Alcott, she didn't maintain that diet. Rynn Berry, an expert on the history of vegetarianism and veganism, wrote: "Whereas Amos Bronson Alcott remained a vegetarian for the rest of his life – refusing to consume milk, eggs, fish, meat, and cheese, or wear leather or woollen clothing – his wife and their four daughters were backsliders."[2]: 133 
  2. ^ DiCaprio was vegetarian when first meeting Paltrow, though later in life eat meats at a dinner with Tobey Macquire, a vegan.;[17][18]
  3. ^ David Duchovny identified as a vegetarian in the late 1990s;[19][20] however in recent years he has been regarded as a pescetarian.[21]
  4. ^ "The passage from Gaskell has persuaded many vegetarians that Charlotte Brontë was one of their number. In fact, even as children, the Brontë siblings ate flesh, both according to their father and to the friends. Moreover, the diaries of the Brontë children refer to their meals and their menus, all of which contain a flesh component."[84]: 241 
  5. ^ Einstein was known to be sympathetic to the vegetarian cause: "Although I have been prevented by outward circumstances from observing a strictly vegetarian diet, I have long been an adherent to the cause in principle."[88] It is also possible that Einstein adopted a vegetarian diet in the final year of his life: a single letter to Hans Muehsam, dated 30 March 1954 states that he was vegetarian; while in a letter to Max Kariel seven months earlier, he said that he was not.[89]
  6. ^ Gregerson[91]: 21  observes: "As Zen roshi, Philip Kapleau points out (see his Cherish All Life), any attempt by Theravadins and others to attribute to the Buddha himself, words permitting the consumption of meat involve a blatant falsification and corruption of sacred texts!"
  7. ^ Although Emerson appears in many un-sourced "Famous Vegetarian" Lists in the internet, he was not a vegetarian: "Once, while Amos Bronson Alcott (a vegetarian) sat at Ralph Waldo Emerson's dinner table, his host discussed the savagery of cannibalism. Emerson was carving a roast as he told his tale. Alcott joked with his nonvegetarian friend: "But Mr. Emerson, if we are to eat meat at all why should we not eat the best?"[93]: 58 
  8. ^ "Ford, not a vegetarian, was obsessed with soybeans […]"[93]: 157 
  9. ^ Some sources state that Jobs was pescetarian rather than vegetarian.[102]
  10. ^ "Ancient sources sometimes identify Plato as a vegetarian, but none of these were his contemporaries, and it is not clear whether their authors knew for a fact that he ate no meat, or were making an assumption based on the vegetarian passages in the Republic and the Laws and the obvious Pythagorean influence in Plato's philosophy."[90]: 33 
  11. ^ "Another list named Shakespeare, the economic and social theorist Adam Smith (an advocate but not a practitioner), and that avid hunter Prince Charles as "famous vegetarians." There is no evidence to support the vegetarianism of any one of them – and a great deal to indicate otherwise.".[84]: 21 "Even Shakespeare who was no vegetarian was burlesquing the Pythagorean theory of reincarnation […]"[2]: 4 
  12. ^ Norm Phelps argues that Socrates was not a vegetarian.[90]: 32–33 
  13. ^ And numerous lists of vegetarians include both Henry David Thoreau and Charles Darwin, neither of whom gave up flesh or claimed to do so."[117]
  14. ^ Mark Twain is on many famous vegetarian lists, however these lists fail to provide evidence to substantiate the claim. Shelley Fisher Fishkin, the editor of The Mark Twain's Book of Animals writes that "Twain was not a vegetarian himself".[118]
  15. ^ Lilli Lehmann, My Path Through Life (1914): "We stayed to a meal with the Wagners, during which he talked much about vegetarianism that he wanted to adopt entirely, but his physician was opposed to it. After what I know of it to-day from my own experience, I am certain that Wagner, without going to the extremes of vegetarianism, would have found it a means of lengthening his life."

He confesses that he's not the complete vegetarian he used to be. "Maybe a year ago, I was thinking that my memory was beginning to fail me," he says. "I started taking fish-oil tablets, which I was told would be helpful. And then I thought, 'Well, if I'm taking the oil I might as well take the rest.' Plus, in Senegal where I spend a bit of time, there's not a huge vegetarian diet there, and the fish is fantastic. So I now eat fish."
