Jane Goodall Quotes

The most important thing is to actually think about what you do. To become aware and actually think about the effect of what you do on the environment and on society. That’s key, and that underlies everything else Picture Quote #1

Chimpanzees, more than any other living creature, have helped us to understand that there is no sharp line between humans and the rest of the animal kingdom. It’s a very blurry line, and it’s getting more blurry all the time Picture Quote #1

Farm animals feel pleasure and sadness, excitement and resentment, depression, fear, and pain. They are far more aware and intelligent than we ever imagined... they are individuals in their own right Picture Quote #1

It’s up to us to save the world for tomorrow: it’s up to you and me Picture Quote #1

We could change the world tomorrow if all the millions of people around the world acted the way they believe Picture Quote #1

One cannot watch chimpanzee infants for long without realizing that they have the same emotional need for affection and reassurance as human children Picture Quote #1

There isn’t a sharp line dividing humans from the rest of the animal kingdom. All the time, we find animals doing things that, in our arrogance, we thought were just human Picture Quote #1

Young people, when informed and empowered, when they realize that what they do truly makes a difference, can indeed change the world Picture Quote #1

It made me feel particularly sickened to know that this kind of callous attitude toward animals is repeated again and again in laboratories around this country Picture Quote #1

I’ve learned that if you want people to join in any kind of conservation effort, you have to help them to care with their hearts, not just their heads Picture Quote #1

I think we’re still in a muddle with our language, because once you get words and a spoken language it gets harder to communicate Picture Quote #1

There are an awful lot of scientists today who believe that before very long we shall have unraveled all the secrets of the universe. There will be no puzzles anymore. To me, it’d be really, really tragic because I think one of the most exciting things is this feeling of mystery, feeling of awe, the feeling of looking at a little live thing and being amazed by it and how it has emerged through these hundreds of years of evolution and there it is and it is perfect and why Picture Quote #1

My mission is to create a world where we can live in harmony with nature. And can I do that alone? No. So there is a whole army of youth that can do it. So I suppose my mission is to reach as many of those young people as I can through my own efforts Picture Quote #1

It has actually been suggested that warfare may have been the principle evolutionary pressure that created the huge gap between the human brain and that of our closest living relatives, the anthropoid apes. Whole groups of hominids with inferior brains could not win wars and were therefore exterminated Picture Quote #1

Thousands of people who say they love animals sit down once or twice a day to enjoy the flesh of creatures who have been utterly deprived of everything that could make their lives worth living and who endured the awful suffering and the terror of the abattoirs Picture Quote #1

I just have this absolute belief that humans are moving away from cruelty and destruction towards a time when we can truly live in harmony with nature. When we understand that there is a spiritual power around us from which we can draw strength. That is where I believe human destiny ultimately is taking us. I just hope we have time Picture Quote #1

It’s easy to become hopeless. So people must have hope: the human brain, the resilience of nature, the energy of young people and the sort of inspiration that you see from so many hundreds of people who tackle tasks that are impossible and never give up and succeed Picture Quote #1

We’re the ones who can make a difference. If we lead lives where we consciously leave the lightest possible ecological footprints, if we buy the things that are ethical for us to buy and don’t buy the things that are not, we can change the world overnight Picture Quote #1

The tree I had in the garden as a child, my beech tree, I used to climb up there and spend hours. I took my homework up there, my books, I went up there if I was sad, and it just felt very good to be up there among the green leaves and the birds and the sky Picture Quote #1
