Cats invented self-esteem; there is not an insecure bone in their body.

If God had meant us to walk around naked, he would never have invented the wicker chair.

One never realizes how different a husband and wife can be until they begin to pack for a trip.

Families aren't easy to join. They're like an exclusive country club where membership makes impossible demands and the dues for an outsider are exorbitant.

I see children as kites. You spend a lifetime trying to get them off the ground. You run with them until you're both breathless. They crash . . . you add a longer tail . . . you patch and comfort, adjust and teach. You watch them lifted by the wind and assure them that someday they'll fly.

There is a thin line that separates laughter and pain, comedy and tragedy, humor and hurt.

Children make your life important.
