– Cat-echisms –

There are two means of refuge from the misery of life – music and cats. – Albert Schweitzer What greater gift than the love of a cat. – Charles Dickens If animals could speak, the dog would be a blundering outspoken fellow; but the cat would have the rare grace of never saying a word too much. – Mark Twain Time spent with a cat is never wasted. – Colette It is good to be a cynic – it is better to be a contented cat – and it is best not to exist at all. – H. P. Lovecraft Authors like cats because they are such quiet, lovable, wise creatures, and cats like authors for the same reasons. – Robertson Davies I believe cats to be spirits come to earth. A cat, I am sure, could walk on a cloud without coming through. – Jules Verne
