Overview

""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 -- Selected quotes from Jane Goodall now at your fingertips Perfect for casual reading, taking ideas, and finding inspiration Makes for a great gift choice EDITORIAL UPDATE: Now includes a brief biography of 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
