Quotable Quotes

“Fish are more intelligent than they appear. In many areas, such as memory, their cognitive powers match or exceed those of ‘higher’ vertebrates, including non-human primates.”
—Dr. Culum Brown, University of Edinburgh

“I never eat anyone I know personally. I wouldn’t eat a grouper any more than I’d eat a cocker spaniel. They’re so good-natured, so curious. You know, fish really are sensitive, they have personalities, they hurt when they’re wounded.”
—Sylvia Earle, former chief scientist of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

“We’re all members of the animal kingdom
Leave your brothers and sisters in the sea”
—Prince
