Margaret MeadIt is easier to change a man's religion than to change his diet.
About This Quote
Dieting is a constant struggle. If you eat the right foods and do the right things, you do not have to continue dieting. The better your diet and the healthier you eat, the easier it becomes. Your body becomes used to the “new” way of eating and your natural weight is maintained.
However, changing one’s religion can be nearly impossible to do. For very religious people, change is not something they can accept. The religious person must stay true to their religion and this makes it nearly impossible to give up the behavior that brought them to that religion in the first place.
