I am a man for whom the outside world exists.

It is difficult to obtain the friendship of a cat. It is a philosophical animal... one that does not place its affections thoughtlessly.

Eyes so transparent that through them the soul is seen.

Who can believe that there is no soul behind those luminous eyes!

The purity of a person's heart can be quickly measured by how they regard animals

To love is to admire with the heart; to admire is to love with the mind.

The cat makes himself the companion of your hours of solitude, melancholy and toil.

The most fitting occupation for a civilized man is to do nothing.

Modesty was made for the ugly.

Books follow morals, and not morals books.

Time was such an odd thing. One moment you could talk to someone, then suddenly, they were gone.

What may not be altered is made lighter by patience.

The best decision-makers are those who are willing to suffer the most over their decisions but still retain their ability to be decisive.

Well that was sucktastic
