Catnip is vodka and whisky to most cats.

I've photographed everybody from Matisse to Isamu Noguchi.

As an inspiration to the author, I do not think the cat can be over-estimated. He suggests so much grace, power, beauty, motion, mysticism. I do not wonder that many writers love cats; I am only surprised that all do not.

The cat is the only animal without visible means of support who still manages to find a living in the city.

The lack of imagination or invention most people display in naming pussies is almost beyond credence.

There are ... two kinds of people in this world, those who long to be understood and those who long to be misunderstood. It is the irony of life that neither is gratified.

Paris is not a city I should care to approach for the first time after I had passed forty.
