1 " 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 Who Came for Christmas (Compleat Cat #1)
2 " The people that set one animal against another haven't the guts to be bullies themselves. They're just secondhand cowards. "
― Cleveland Amory
3 " For an animal person, an animal-less home is no home at all. "
4 " One of the ways in which cats show happiness is by sleeping. "
5 " Giving the cat a name, like marriage, is not an easy thing. Soon I experienced the selection of name for a baby, a dog, a book, a warship, a sports team, even the king, the pope or a hurricane is just child's play compared to the selection of the cat's name. "
6 " A person has an idea about foreign policy or doesn't know one’s arse from one’s elbow. "
7 " You cannot expect everything even from the friendliest cat. It is still a cat. "
8 " You won't find the word happy in any self-respecting grumbler's dictionary, no matter it's Christmas Eve or the any other day. "
9 " You do not need to belong to the cat for a long time to realize the main thing that cats like to do is to wrap theirselves up in mystery, perhaps only except for a hobby of jumbling up everything that is in order. And if the cat can, and usually so, make a great mystery of where it was when you were searching for it even if a moment ago it was sitting by your side, do not have any doubts: its ancestors had a great pleasure to surround its origin by mystery. "
10 " I have been extremely positive with almost all new people. And why, let me ask, shan't I be? When you think, you have a lot of to say for someone you know for a short time. "
11 " When you are communicating with new people you do not have to know their names — after all, you've just met. "
