Dogs love us not only because we feed them, walk them, or groom them, or protect them, but because we are fun. How astonishing!

Dogs never lie about love.

Animals are, like us, endangered species on an endangered planet, and we are the ones who are endangering them, it, and ourselves. They are innocent sufferers in a hell of our making.

Animals love and suffer, cry and laugh; their hearts rise up in anticipation and fall in despair...they feel.

Questers of the truth, that’s who dogs are; seekers after the invisible scent of another being’s authentic core.

We need cats to need us. It unnerves us that they do not. However, if they do not need us, they nonetheless seem to love us.

Hardly any animal can look as deeply disappointed as a dog to whom one says "no."

The curiosity of cats is, like their affection, of a purity and intensity rarely seen in humans. We would be jaded when faced with the fiftieth paper bag. Not so our cats.

Us" versus "them" is not in our genes. It is something we learn.

Swimming the ocean a giant brain watches us.

Keep in mind that many people have died for their beliefs

You can't speak life to others if you don't know how to speak life to yourself. Dead leaves can't breathe.

We're always one breath away from something, living or dying, sometimes it just can't be helped.

I was a little shocked at how adult some of the humor was, because I was never that into animation before and when I watched 'Shrek' I really laughed out loud.

While I was girl of the year and superstar and all that crap, everything I did was really...motivated by psychological disturbance.

The point of existence is not to find the most powerful thing you can imagine and then grovel before it.

Oh, Mirth and Innocence! Oh, Milk and Water! Ye happy mixture of more happy days!

We only work four days a week, we only work three weeks out of the month, and we get four months off for the summer. So there's plenty of time for me to spend with the kids.

Sometimes incompetence is useful. It helps you keep an open mind.

Wise people prefer to benefit from constructive criticism rather than be ruined by false praise
