Famous quotes by Gerald Durrell:
"Nothing except possibly love and death are of importance, & even the importance of death is somewhat ephemeral, as no one has yet faxed back a reliable report."
"How long did it take six men to build a wall if three of them took a week? I recall that we spent almost as much time on this problem as the men spent on the wall."
"I said I _liked_ being half-educated; you were so much more _surprised_at everything when you were ignorant."
"All over the world the wildlife that I write about is in grave danger. It is being exterminated by what we call the progress of civilization."
"Zoos should concentrate more on the preservation side of things."
