Lisa: When will those fools learn they can be perfectly happy eating fruits, breads, grains, and cheese?
Apu: Ooh, cheese!?
Lisa: You don't eat cheese, Apu?
Apu: No. I don't eat any food that comes from an animal.
Lisa: Oh. Then you must think I'm a monster.
Apu: Yes indeed I do think that. But I learned long ago Lisa to tolerate others rather than forcing my beliefs on them. You know you can influence people without badgering them always. It's like Paul's song, "Live and Let Live."
Paul: Actually, it was "Live and Let Die."
Apu: Well, whatever, whatever. It had a good rhythm.

Man, I love that episode! Take it easy Al!

Good catch. When I went online to search for the quote, the page I found didn't have that last part. In the interest of accuracy and completism (I know completism isn't a word, but what else would a completist be concerned with? ... wait, completist isn't a word either? Wha?)...
Anyway, I'm editing the original post to include this dialogue. Thanks for the heads up, Dave.
i.e. the BEST episode of the Simpson's ever! I remember seeing that one for the first time (I was already veggie, in high school) and it meant a lot to me....
