Quotes by Alison Jolly (?)

“Biology textbooks tell you the opposite action of sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. One produces cold, blue-white anger, the other flushed apoplexy. Roy's was the pink sort. He was a big blonde man, with Viking bristle to eyebrows and mustache.”
― Alison Jolly, Thank You, Madagascar: The Conservation Diaries of Alison Jolly
