On relationships...
"My great admiration and love of nature's creations took me out to Africa in early youth and there, through the real contact with all these wonders, I got to admire and love it even more. I found out while bringing up animals that the most different species will form friendships and be inseparable friends, and that no animal can live without society, or without a true companion. The loss of this friend after a long separation will break its heart, or the the meeting with its friend after a long separation will make it wild with joy. In the world of animals I have experienced love, gratitude, fidelity, attachment - all the beauties of the soul - and very often I felt inclined to think what wonderful examples were thus set to the lord of creation, man."
