In my experience, cats and beds seem to be a natural combination.

Never believe that animals suffer less than humans. Pain is the same for them that it is for us. Even worse, because they cannot help themselves.

A cat determined not to be found can fold itself up like a pocket handkerchief if it wants to.

Love of animals is a universal impulse, a common ground on which all of us may meet. By loving and understanding animals, perhaps we humans shall come to understand each other.

There is something about the presence of a cat... that seems to take the bite out of being alone.

Never ask a hungry cat whether he loves you for yourself alone.

With dogs and people, it's love in big splashy colours. When you're involved with a cat, you're dealing in pastels.

Work - other people's work - is an intolerable idea to a cat. Can you picture cats herding sheep or agreeing to pull a cart? They will not inconvenience themselves to the slightest degree.

There are only two forces at work in this world- black and white. Only people are grey.

Money isn’t the only measure of making a house a home.

No man is a hero to his valet.

Design is nothing if not decision making.

There is no accounting for tastes.

Educators must resist the quest for certainty. If there were certainty there would be no scientific advancement. So it is with morals and patriotism.

If an innovative piece of software comes along, Microsoft copies it and makes it part of Windows. This is not innovation; this is the end of innovation.

There's a sort of dead passion in him. A spark that, had he more years to live, would be a wildfire.

No, we don't walk away. But when we're holding on to something precious, we run. We run and run, fast as we can, and we don't stop running until we are out from under the shadow.

Everyone needs something to aim for. You can call it a challenge, or you can call it a goal. It is what makes us human. It was challenges that took us from being cavemen to reaching for the stars.
