    About this ebook

    Paul Watson is one of the best known environmental activists in the world today. Very instrumental in the early formation of Greenpeace, he has devoted his life to helping protect the environment and in particular animals of the sea.

    One cannot fail to respect Watson to the major powers he has stood against in his mission to save the sea life (particularly whales), standing up to the likes of Japan and despite his non-violent protests has even spent time in jail for his devotion to his causes.

    This book brings together some of his most notable quotes, about a variety of subject including himself, animals and politics.
