Cleanliness in the cat world is usually a virtue put above godliness.

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

Cats have gnosis to a degree that is granted to few bishops.

I've photographed everybody from Matisse to Isamu Noguchi.

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.

The cat, it is well to remember, remains the friend of man because it pleases him to do so and not because he must.

A cat is never vulgar.
