In nine lifetimes, you'll never know as much about your cat as your cat knows about you.
Michel de MontaigneI never rebel so much against France as not to regard Paris with a friendly eye; she has had my heart since my childhood... I love her tenderly, even to her warts and her spots. I am French only by this great city: the glory of France, and one of the noblest ornaments of the world.
Michel de Montaigne
