“What the chimpanzee has done is to prove there is no hard and
fast line dividing us from the rest of the animal kingdom. Once you admit that we’re not the only beings with personalities, minds,
capable of thought and emotions, it raises ethical issues about the ways we use
and abuse so many other sentient, sapient beings—animal beings—every day.”
—Dr. Jane Goodall, speaking about the move to free chimpanzees from lab experiments.
