A BEAST KNOWS IT IS A BEAST, AND WILL ACT ACCORDINGLY, BUT, THE CLOSER MAN GETS TO BECOMING A BEAST, THE LESS HE REALIZES HE HAS BECOME OR IS BECOMING A BEAST!
Marlene’s quote is so true. The more we degenerate as a society, the less we realize it.
On the other hand, Cats live their natures honestly, but what a wonderful, complex nature they have!
Cats pretend to need you, until you are perfectly trained.
There’s no substitute for cats who train well, as mine continue to let me know again and again.
Gautier’s quote: One of the many reasons I admire cats is for their intelligence. They figure you out long before you figure them out!
Great list of quotes, love it! <3
I love these quotes that are honouring cats. My favourite quote from your list is “The smallest feline is a masterpiece” by Leonardo DaVinci. Cats as well as dogs are so loving. If we would love ourselves as much as our cats do, we would be in a great place of happiness. Your cats never judge you or criticize you, love yourself unconditionally, complete self-acceptance. Take note of how your cats accept you and follow their lead.
