More quotes by David Attenborough
Well, I'm having a good time. Which makes me feel guilty too. How very English.
David Attenborough
I'd like to see the giant squid. Nobody has ever seen one. I could tell you people who have spent thousands and thousands of pounds trying to see giant squid. I mean, we know they exist because we have seen dead ones. But I have never seen a living one. Nor has anybody else.
David Attenborough
It's like saying that two and two equals four, but if you wish to believe it, it could also be five ... Evolution is not a theory it is a fact, every bit as much as the historical fact that William the Conqueror landed in 1066.
David Attenborough
I just wish the world was twice as big and half of it was still unexplored.

David Attenborough
It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement the greatest source of visual beauty the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living.
David Attenborough
The notion of ever more old people needing ever more young people, who will in turn grow old and need even more young people, and so on ad infinitum, is an obvious ecological Ponzi scheme.
David Attenborough
Nothing in the natural world makes sense - except when seen in the light of evolution
David Attenborough
I'm against this huge globalisation on the basis of economic advantage.
David Attenborough
All life is related. And it enables us to construct with confidence the complex tree that represents the history of life
David Attenborough
There are some four million different kinds of animals and plants in the world. Four million different solutions to the problems of staying alive.
David Attenborough
All we can hope for is that the thing is going to slowly and imperceptibly shift. All I can say is that 50 years ago there were no such thing as environmental policies.
David Attenborough
The process of making natural history films is to try to prevent the animal knowing you are there, so you get glimpses of a non-human world, and that is a transporting thing.
