Jane Goodall

Thousands of people who say they 'love' animals sit down once or twice a day to enjoy the flesh of creatures who have been treated so with little respect and kindness just to make more meat.

We are part of the animal kingdom, not separated from it.

I do have reasons for hope: our clever brains, the resilience of nature, the indomitable human spirit, and above all, the commitment of young people when they're empowered to take action.

Lasting change is a series of compromises. And compromise is all right, as long your values don't change.

We are not the only beings with personalities, minds capable of rational thought, and emotions like joy and sorrow.

I think empathy is really important, and I think only when our clever brain and our human heart work together in harmony can we achieve our full potential.

We still have a long way to go. But we are moving in the right direction. If we all do our part, a better world is possible.

The worst thing you can do is give up when you know you're right.

We must remember that we are not the only ones that matter on this planet.

I believe that there is a great power, whatever you call it, that is in every single one of us, and that we have the ability to tap into that.

My job is to give people hope.

We have stolen their future. We are still stealing their future. But we must give them a future.
