"When I was a little girl, I used to dream as a man, because I wanted to do things that women didn’t do back then such as traveling to Africa, living with wild animals and writing books," said Dr. Jane Goodall. "I didn’t have any female explorers or scientists to look up to but I was inspired by Dr. Dolittle, Tarzan and Mowgli in The Jungle Book — all male characters. It was only my mother who supported my dream: 'You’ll have to work hard, take advantage of opportunities and never give up,' she’d tell me. I’ve shared that message with young people around the world, and so many have thanked me, and said, 'You taught me that because you did it, I can do it too.'"
