Jane Goodall's Little Book of Selected Quotes By Jane Goodall
PUBLISHER: Independently Published
INFORMATION
Words can enhance experience, but they can also take so much away. We see
an insect and at once we abstract certain characteristics and classify it -
a fly. And in that very cognitive exercise, part of the wonder is gone. Once
we have labeled the things around us we do not bother to look at them so
carefully. Words are part of our rational selves, and to abandon them for a
while is to give freer reign to our intuitive selves."
~ Jane Goodall

"We seem to have lost the wisdom of the indigenous people, which dictated
that in any major decision, the first consideration was 'How will this
decision we're making today affect our people in the future?' These days,
decisions are made based on the bottom line."
~ Jane Goodall
"Chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans have been living for hundreds of
thousands of years in their forest,living fantastic lives, never
overpopulating, never destroying the forest. I would say that they have been
in a way more successful than us as far as being in harmony with the
environment."
~ Jane Goodall
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
From Jane Goodall Institute:
Equipped with little more than a notebook, binoculars, and her fascination with wildlife, Jane Goodall braved a realm of unknowns to give the world a remarkable window into humankind’s closest living relatives. Through nearly 60 years of groundbreaking work, Dr. Jane Goodall has not only shown us the urgent need to protect chimpanzees from extinction; she has also redefined species conservation to include the needs of local people and the environment. Today she travels the world, speaking about the threats facing chimpanzees and environmental crises, urging each of us to take action on behalf of all living things and planet we share.
