I believe that accurate knowledge is very, very important, but find that out in free time. Don't let it take over every hour of the day. Perhaps most important, talk about it.

I cannot remember a time when I did not want to go to Africa to study animals.

Every stage of my life set the scene for the next, and at each point all I had to do was say "yes" and not think too much about the consequences.

We are beginning to learn that each animal has a life and a place and a role in this world. If we place compassion and care in the middle of all our dealings with the animal world and honor and respect their lives, our attitudes will change.

Mainly because as women's education increases all around the planet, we find that family size tends to drop.

We have so far to go to realize our human potential for compassion, altruism, and love.

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