Quote by Temple Grandin

“Steve Jobs was probably mildly on the autistic spectrum. Basically, you've probably known people who were geeky and socially awkward but very smart. When does geeks and nerds become autism? That's a gray area. Half the people in Silicon Valley probably have autism.”

“We owe them [animals] a decent life and a decent death, and their lives should be as low-stress as possible. That's my job.

People were animals, too, once, and when we turned into human beings we gave something up. Being close to animals brings some of it back.”
