I would like to paint the way a bird sings.

The greatness of a nation can be judged by the way its animals are treated.

The bond with a dog is as lasting as the ties of this Earth can ever be.

Happiness is a warm puppy.

Until one extends one’s circle of compassion to all living things, humanity will not find peace.

I care not for a man’s religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it.

The greatness of animals is that they are just themselves.

Animals are such agreeable friends—they ask no questions; they pass no criticisms.

An animal’s eyes have the power to speak a great language.

If I could be half the person my dog is, I’d be twice the human I am.

Until one has loved an animal, a part of one’s soul remains unawakened.

The lion never fears to walk alone.

What greater gift than the love of a cat.

Time spent with cats is never wasted.

We find animals doing things that we, in our arrogance, used to think was ‘just human.’

A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.
