It is not easy to find happiness in ourselves, and it is not possible to find it elsewhere.

We cannot really love anyone with with whom we never laugh.

A kitten is chiefly remarkable for rushing about like mad at nothing whatever, and generally stopping before it gets there.

It is impossible for a lover of cats to banish these alert, gentle, and discriminating friends, who give us just enough of their regard and complaisance to make us hunger for more.

Humor brings insight and tolerance. Irony brings a deeper and less friendly understanding.

Humor distorts nothing, and only false gods are laughed off their earthly pedestals.
