Horses Lend Us The Wings We Lack.

Human Beings Are Drawn To Cats Because They Are All We Are Not — Self-contained, Elegant In Everything They Do, Relaxed, Assured, Glad Of Company, Yet Still Possessing Secret Lives.

In A World Gone Bad, A Bear - Even A Bear Standing On Its Head - Is A Comforting, Uncomplicated, Dependable Hunk Of Sanity.

You Are Asleep. Deep, Deep Asleep - And Then The World Caves In. The Cat Has Leapt From The Top Window Onto Your Stomach. He Is Saturated. He Is Hungry. He Taps You Into Full Wakefulness With A Sodden Paw "could You Open A Can?"

It's Hard To Visualize The Toys You Had Fifty Years Ago - All Save Bear. He's As Clear As If He Were Sitting On The Desk In Front Of You...of Course...he Probably Is.

Becoming A Grandmother Is Wonderful. One Moment You're Just A Mother. The Next You Are All-wise And Prehistoric.
