Jane Goodall

I'm not a saint. I'm just a woman who loves animals.

The chimpanzees taught me that it's important to be patient.

I think the most important thing is to instill in children a love of nature.

My greatest hope is that we can learn to live in peace with all creatures.

The world needs more compassion.

I still believe in the goodness of humanity.

We are all interconnected. What we do to the Earth, we do to ourselves.

I'm just a voice for the voiceless.

The greatest joy is to be out in nature.

We have so far to go to understand the minds of the other animals, and how much they suffer.

Chimpanzees have taught me that we are not the only beings with personalities, minds, and, above all, feelings.

Animals are not just things. They're living beings with feelings, just like us.

We can't save the world if we don't save the animals.

Until we learn to respect and live in harmony with the natural world, we will never truly be at peace.

It is our responsibility to protect the planet and all the species that live on it.

Every single day, we make choices that impact the planet. We can choose to make a difference.

We need to reconnect with nature. We need to remember that we are part of it, not separate from it.

The loss of biodiversity is a tragedy for all of us.

We are at a critical point in time. We need to act now to save the planet.

Hope is what keeps us going. Hope is what drives us to make a difference.
