The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Who seeks shall find.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
After a storm comes a calm.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Wherever you are - be all there.
As an inspiration to the author, I do not think the cat can be over-estimated. He suggests so much grace, power, beauty, motion, mysticism. I do not wonder that many writers love cats I am only surprised that all do not.
