When I was 7 and went to the zoo with my second-grade class, I saw chimpanzee eyes for the first time - the eyes of an unhappy animal, all alone, locked in a bare, concrete-floored, iron-barred cage in one of the nastier, old-fashioned zoos. I remember looking at the chimp, then looking away.

Als ich 7 Jahre alt war und mit meiner zweiten Klasse in den Zoo ging, sah ich zum ersten Mal Augen eines Schimpansen - die Augen eines unglücklichen Tieres, ganz allein, in einem nackten Käfig mit einem eisernen Käfig in einem einzigen Käfig von den bösen, altmodischen Zoos. Ich erinnere mich, wie ich den Schimpanse angeschaut und dann weggeschaut habe.

I remember feeling all right with myself until age 13. Then, I was getting off the bus one day and this guy called me Miss Piggy. That was the first time I ever really felt like I wasn't okay.
