Cat Quotes (page 21)

Let your boat of life be light, packed with only what you need - a homely home and simple pleasures, one or two friends, worth the name, someone to love and someone to love you, a cat, a dog, and a pipe or two, enough to eat and enough to wear, and a little more than enough to drink; for thirst is a dangerous thing. Jerome K. Jerome

They either wax conceited, saying things like: 'My brilliance is possibly most apparent in my dazzling short story, "The Cookiepants Hypotenuse."'

A few years ago it dawned on me that everybody past a certain age ... pretty much constantly dreams of being able to escape from their lives. They don't want to be who they are any more. They want out. This list includes Thurston Howell the Third, Ann-Margret, the cat members of Rent, Vclav Havel, space shuttle astronauts and Snuffleupagus. It's universal. Doug Coupland

Organizing gods is like herding cats into straight lines. They don't take naturally to it. Neil Gaiman
Zombies are the liberal nightmare. Here you have the masses, whom you would love to love, appearing at your front door with their faces falling off; and you’re trying to be as humane as you possibly can, but they are, after all, eating the cat. And the fear of mass activity, of mindlessness on a national scale, underlies my fear of zombies. Clive Barker
Henry David Thoreau quote: "It often happens that a human is more humanely related to a..."
It often happens that a human is more humanely related to a cat or dog than to any human being. Henry David Thoreau
The smell of that buttered toast simply spoke to Toad, and with no uncertain voice; talked of warm kitchens, of breakfasts on bright frosty mornings, of cozy parlour firesides on winter evenings, when one's ramble was over and slippered feet were propped on the fender; of the purring of contented cats, and the twitter of sleepy canaries. Kenneth Grahame
Lewis Carroll quote: "Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: 'we're all mad here...."
Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: 'we're all mad here. I'm mad. you're mad Lewis Carroll

A cat can outrace the best thoroughbred horse if only it can grasp the idea of racing. Mark Helprin
pull a string, a puppet moves ... each man must realize that it can all disappear very quickly: the cat, the woman, the job, the front tire, the bed, the walls, the room; all our necessities including love, rest on foundations of sand -- and any given cause, no matter how unrelated: the death of a boy in Hong Kong or a blizzard in Omaha ... can serve as your undoing. all your chinaware crashing to the kitchen floor, your girl will enter and you'll be standing, drunk, in the center of it and... Charles Bukowski
