of never saying a word too much. ~Mark Twain

seems to take the bite out of being alone. ~Louis J. Camuti

three in the morning. He won't attack the mailman or eat the

to her more than she is to me? ~Michel de Montaigne

will find it and soak it up. ~Jean Asper McIntosh

amount of masking tape can ever totally remove his fur
from your couch. ~Leo Dworken

A dog, I have always said, is prose; a cat is a poem. ~Jean Burden

who still manages to find a living in the city. ~Carl van Vechten

in foul weather. ~Judith Merkle Riley

My cat speaks sign language with her tail. ~Robert A. Stern
