From serenity comes gentleness, comes lasting strength.

Cats can work out mathematically the exact place to sit that will cause most inconvenience.

The work of a garden bears visible fruits-in a world where most of our labours seem suspiciously meaningless.

Loss leaves us empty - but learn not to close your heart and mind in grief. Allow life to replenish you. When sorrow comes it seems impossible - but new joys wait to fill the void.

Many a cat can only be lured in by switching off all the lights and keeping very still. Until the indignant cry of a cat-locked-out comes at the door.

Be wary of the horse with a sense of humor.
