Theophile Gautier
“Animals have these advantages over man: they never hear the clock strike, they die without any idea of death, they have no theologians to instruct them, their last moments are not disturbed by unwelcome and unpleasant ceremonies, their funerals cost”
Voltaire
“Love is an alliance of friendship and animalism; if the former predominates it is passion exalted and refined; if the latter, gross and sensual.”
Charles Caleb Colton
“A black cat crossing your path signifies that the animal is going somewhere.”
Groucho Marx
