Do you see that kitten chasing so prettily her own tail? If you could look with her eyes, you might see her surrounded with hundreds of figures performing complex dramas, with tragic and comic issues, long conversations, many characters, many ups and downs of fate. – Ralph Waldo Emerson

Cats have intercepted my footsteps at the ankle for so long that my gait, both at home and on tour, has been compared to that of a man wading through low surf. – Roy Blount, Jr.

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