1 " A friendship can weather most things and thrive in thin soil; but it needs a little mulch of letters and phone calls and small, silly presents every so often - just to save it from drying out completely. "
― Pam Brown
2 " When sisters stand shoulder to shoulder, who stands a chance against us? "
3 " Loss leaves us empty- but learn not to close your heart and mind to grief. Allow life to replinish you. When sorrow comes it seems impossible- but new "
4 " Cats can work out mathematically the exact place to sit that will cause most inconvenience. "
5 " Human beings are drawn to cats because they are all we are not — self-contained, elegant in everything they do, relaxed, assured, glad of company, yet still possessing secret lives. "
6 " A cat is always on the wrong side of any door. "

7 " A horse is the projection of peoples' dreams about themselves - strong, powerful, beautiful - and it has the capability of giving us escape from our mundane existence. "
8 " One small cat changes coming home to an empty house to coming home. "
9 " Sisters annoy, interfere, criticize. Indulge in monumental sulks, in huffs, in snide remarks. Borrow. Break. Monopolize the bathroom. Are always underfoot. But if catastrophe should strike, sisters are there. Defending you against all comers. "
10 " In loneliness, in sickness, in confusion-the mere knowledge of friendship makes it possible to endure, even if the friend is powerless to help. It is enough that they exist. Friendship is not diminished by distance or time, by imprisonment or war, by suffering or silence. It is in these things that it roots most deeply. It is from these things that it flowers. "
11 " It should be possible to exist with only a short shelf of books, to read and give away. After all - we may not open a book, once read, for ten years or more. But the act of reading has made it part of us - to relinquish it would be to lose an extension of our being. "
12 " A horse can lend its rider the speed and strength he or she lacks, but the rider who is wise remembers it is no more than a loan. "
13 " Dads are most ordinary men turned by love into heroes, adventures, story-tellers, and singers of songs. "
14 " Your first butterfly. Your first rainbow. Your first dinasaur. In sharing your childhood I relived my own. "
