"The world needs more compassion."

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

"My mother always told me that if I wanted to achieve something, I had to work hard and never give up."

"The world needs us to be better. We need to be better for the animals, for the planet, for ourselves."

"I like to think of myself as a storyteller, and my stories are about the animals and the planet."
