The dog has seldom been successful in pulling man up
to its level of sagacity, but man has frequently
dragged the dog down to his.

We long for an affection altogether ignorant of our faults.
Heaven has accorded this to us in the uncritical canine attachment.

Ouside of a dog, a book is man's best friend.
Inside a dog, it's too dark to read.

What counts is not necessarily the size of the dog in the fight;
it's the size of the fight in the dog.

I think we are drawn to dogs because they are the uninhibited creatures
we might be if we weren't certain we knew better. They fight for honor
at the first challenge, make love with no moral restraint, and they do
not for all their marvelous instincts appear to know about death. Being
such wonderfully uncomplicated beings, they need us to do their worrying.
