If there's one thing that I, Steve Irwin, would wanna be remembered for, it's be remembered for passion and enthusiasm. Conservation is my job, my life, my whole persona.

I have no fear of losing my life. If I have to save a koala or a crocodile or a kangaroo or a snake, mate, I will save it.

I believe that education is all about being excited about something. Seeing passion and enthusiasm helps push an educational message.

Where I live, if someone gives you a hug, it's from the heart.

I've been put on this planet to protect wildlife and wildnerness areas, which in essence is gonna help humanity. I want to have the purest oceans, I want to be able to drink water straight outta that creek, I want to stop the ozone layer [from depleting], I want to save the world.

Every cent we earn from Crocodile Hunter goes straight back into conservation. Every single cent.

When I saw Terri in the crowd, I looked up and our eyes met, and my heart just went, "Bang, bang, bang, bang!" - just started thumpin'. It was love at first sight! I know this sounds like it's coming out of some Mills & Boon love novel, but it's true! Love at first sight!

I can't stop, mate. I'm on fire. I wake up in the morning and I'm on fire. I just can't do enough. It drives me crazy that I've got to go to sleep; you know, can't I film something at night?

When I talk to the camera, mate, it's not like I'm talking to the camera, I'm talking to you because I want to whip you around and plunk you right there with me.

The first crocodile I ever caught was at nine years of age, and it was a rescue.
