Chimps Are Far Too Much Human To Be My Favorite Animal.

The Chimpanzees Taught Me A Lot About Nonverbal Communication. The Big Difference Between Them And Us Is That They Don't Have Spoken Language. Everything Else Is Almost The Same: Kissing, Embracing, Swaggering, Shaking The Fist.

You Can't Do Everything. You Can't Do Health And Forestry And Agriculture. You've Got To Focus And Do One Or The Other.

That's What Keeps Me Going. Everywhere I Go There Are Young People With Shining Eyes Wanting To Tell Me, "dr. Jane, We're Going To Make The World A Better Place."

If You Look Into Their [chimpanzees] Eyes, You Know You're Looking Into A Thinking Mind. They Teach Us That We Are Not The Only Beings With Personalities, Minds Capable Of Rational Thought, Altruism And A Sense Of Humor. That Leads To New Respect For Other Animals, Respect For The Environment And Respect For All Life.
