I had never been able to believe that God would give us poor frail humans only one chance at making it -- that we would be assigned to some kind of hell because we failed during one experience of mortal life. ... So the concepts of karma and reincarnation made logical sense to me.

I believe the only hope for mankind lies in the hands of our young people.

Chimps are brutal, and it is so deliberate. The males go out and get near the boundary of their territory. And they walk very silently trying hard not to make any noise. They will climb into a tree and stare out over hostile territory for hours. They are waiting for the right opportunity. And then they attack.

We find animals doing things that we, in our arrogance, used to think was "just human".

Chimps are very quick to have a sudden fight or aggressive episode, but they're equally as good at reconciliation.

Researchers find it very necessary to keep blinkers on. They don't want to admit that the animals they are working with have feelings.

We can learn to suppress our feelings for other reasons.
