More quotes by Jane Goodall
To reconnect with nature is key if we want to save the planet.
Jane Goodall
Surely it should be a matter of moral responsibility that we humans, different from other animals mainly by virtue of our more highly developed intellect and, with it, our greater capacity for understanding and compassion, ensure that medical progress slowly detaches its roots from the manure of non-human animal suffering and despair.
Jane Goodall
In a very unscientific statement, I feel that there's been a disconnect between this clever brain and the heart.
Jane Goodall
We have to create more and more vegetarians, and help people to understand that it is not only the suffering of the animals (which is what made me vegetarian) but also the incredible harm to the environment, the tremendous amount of greenhouse gas created by the whole vast machinery of intensive animal farming.
Jane Goodall
If harsher laws are put in place, less will dare to break them.
Jane Goodall
People say to me so often, 'Jane how can you be so peaceful when everywhere around you people want books signed, people are asking these questions and yet you seem peaceful,' and I always answer that it is the peace of the forest that I carry inside.
Jane Goodall
The more we spread the word, the further it will go and more it will change!
Jane Goodall
I am living in the Africa I have always longed for, always felt stirring in my blood.
Jane Goodall
You may not believe in evolution, and that is all right. How we humans came to be the way we are is far less important than how we should act now to get out of the mess we have made for ourselves.
Jane Goodall
I believe the only hope for mankind lies in the hands of our young people.
Jane Goodall
I am obstinate and I will not give in.
Jane Goodall
As a child, we couldn't afford holidays overseas, so instead I travelled through books. I was inspired by Dr Dolittle and Tarzan.
Jane Goodall
There would be very little point in my exhausting myself and other conservationists themselves in trying to protect animals and habitats if we weren't at the same time raising young people to be better stewards.
Jane Goodall
Especially females and the younger ones like to be with somebody who is wise.
Jane Goodall
A good mother is protective but not over-protective. She's patient, she's affectionate, she's playful, but above all she is supportive.
Jane Goodall
I believe sharing stories and experiences is the best way to teach people to empathize!
Jane Goodall
Above all we must realize that each of us makes a difference with our life. Each of us impacts the world around us every single day. We have a choice to use the gift of our life to make the world a better place - or not to bother
Jane Goodall
Maternal behavior helps when you have to be patient with nonverbal creatures.
Jane Goodall
I learnt from Flo how to be mother. Flo was patient, tolerant. She was supportive. She was always there. She was playful. She enjoyed having her babies, as good mothers do.
Jane Goodall
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.
