The cat, it is well to remember, remains the friend of man because it pleases him to do so and not because he must.
Cats seldom make mistakes, and they never make the same mistake twice.
I've photographed everybody from Matisse to Isamu Noguchi.
Is a little experience too much to pay for learning to know oneself?
The cat seldom interferes with other people's rights. His intelligence keeps him from doing many of the fool things that complicate life.
...with a cat you stand on much the same footing that you stand with a fine and dignified friend; if you forfeit his respect and confidence the relationship suffers. The cat, it is well to remember, remains the friend of man because it pleases him to do so and not because he must.
