Hippolyte Taine
“As anyone who has ever been around a cat for any length of time well knows, cats have enormous patience with the limitations of the human kind.”
Cleveland Amory
“The cat, it is well to remember, remains the friend of man because it pleases him to do so and not because he must.”
Carl Van Vechten
“In ancient times cats were worshipped as gods; they have not forgotten this.”
Terry Pratchett
“Your cat will never threaten your popularity by barking at three in the morning. He won't attack the mailman or eat the drapes, although he may climb the drapes to see how the room looks from the ceiling.”
Helen Powers
“When I play with my cat, who knows whether she is not amusing herself with me more than I with her.”
Michel de Montaigne
“When my cats aren't happy, I'm not happy. Not because I care about their mood but because I know they're just sitting there thinking up ways to get even.”
Percy Bysshe Shelley
