"Every time you lose an animal, it's like losing a brick from the house. Pretty soon the house just falls down, you know?"
- Bindi Irwin
About this Quote
In this quote, Bindi Irwin, an Australian conservationist and television personality, is comparing the loss of an animal to losing a brick from a home. She describes that each animal is an important piece of the community, just like each brick is an important part of a house. When an animal is lost, it develops a hole in the environment, much like a missing out on brick would develop a hole in a house. And just as a house can not stand without all its bricks, the community can not operate effectively without all its animals. This quote highlights the interconnectedness and importance of all living beings in our world.
