“When your organs are failing and you realize that you're going to die, all you want to do is just give back. You think, how did I leave this world better than I came into it? What did I give back? Yes, I succeeded in my professional career of doing what I needed to do. But what did I actually do to leave a mark to make it better?”

“Animals can be such powerful beings, and they can help really save people from themselves because you start to see outside yourself”

“The biggest thing that you can do to heal yourself is to do service. And that's something that I knew from my personal experience.”

“When we're lonely, we want to take care of someone, we want to feel a sense of purpose. And these animals give us purpose.”
