Tywais Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 (edited) Money will buy a pretty good dog but it won't buy the wag of his tail. - Josh Billings The greatest pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him, and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself, too. - Samuel Butler Animals are such agreeable friends--they ask no questions, they pass no criticisms. - George Eliot A dog's best friend is his illiteracy. - Ogden Nash What counts is not necessarily the size of the dog in the fight, what counts is the size of the fight in the dog. - Mark Twain There is no faith which has never yet been broken, except that of a truly faithful dog. - Konrad Z. Lorenz Our dogs will love and admire the meanest of us, and feed our colossal vanity with their uncritical homage. - Agnes Repplier Dogs come when they are called. Cats take a message and get back to you. - Mary Bly Dogs look up to you. Cats look down on you. Give me a pig. He just looks you in the eye and treats you like an equal. - Winston Churchill The dog was created specially for children. He is a god of frolic. - Henry Ward Beecher If dogs could talk, perhaps we'd find it just as hard to get along with them as we do people. - Karel Caprek To his dog, every man is Napoleon; hence the constant popularity of dogs. - Aldous Huxley Man is a dog's ideal of what God should be. - Holbrook Jackson The more I see of the representatives of the people the more I admire my dogs. - Alphonse de Lamartine I loathe people who keep dogs. They are cowards who haven't got the guts to bite people themselves. - August Strindberg " I never married because there was no need. I have three pets at home which answer the same purpose as a husband. I have a dog that growls every morning, a parrot that swears all afternoon, and a cat that comes home late at night." -- Marie Corelli "My husband and I are either going to buy a dog or have a child. We can't decide to ruin our carpet or ruin our lives. " -- Rita Rudne ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "He is my other eyes that can see above the clouds; my other ears that hear above the winds. He is the part of me that can reach out into the sea. He has told me a thousand times over that I am his reason for being; by the way he rests against my leg; by the way he thumps his tail at my smallest smile; by the way he shows his hurt when I leave without taking him. (I think it makes him sick with worry when he is not along to care for me.) When I am wrong, he is delighted to forgive. When I am angry, he clowns to make me smile. When I am happy, he is joy unbounded. When I am a fool, he ignores it. When I succeed, he brags. Without him, I am only another man. With him, I am all-powerful. He is loyalty itself. He has taught me the meaning of devotion. With him, I know a secret comfort and a private peace. He has brought me understanding where before I was ignorant. His head on my knee can heal my human hurts. His presence by my side is protection against my fears of dark and unknown things. He has promised to wait for me... whenever... wherever - in case I need him. And I expect I will - as I always have. He is just my dog." - Gene Hill Edited December 30, 2005 by tywais Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
