Caroline KnappDogs have found themselves in an odd predicament by living with humans. In the wild, dogs don't need humans to achieve balance.

This takes exercise and discipline before affection, and always maintaining your calm, assertive pack leadership.
Cesar MillanDogs would make totally incompetent criminals. If you could somehow get a group of dogs to understand the concept of the Kennedy assassination, they would all immediately confess to it.

Would you like him as a family physician?

Sherrilyn KenyonPeace to these little broken leaves, That strew our common ground; That chase their tails, like silly dogs, As they go round and round.

Gisele BundchenI remember somebody had said to me "What're you doing with a movie like Boiler Room? It's all men and you're a woman. You should be making romantic comedies," or something like that. Boiler Room, for me, was a morality tale. I remember this interview where they said to me "Yeah, but all the characters are men," and I was like, "But I'm a girl, I like men!" It's not like there's nothing interesting to me just because a lot of characters in that movie happen to be male. Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean I only wanna make Must Love Dogs over and over again.

Mike FisherBe alert as you watch a dog at play or at rest. Let the animal teach you to feel at home in the now, to celebrate life by being completely present.

And they are not telling themselves a story of why life is good. It's a direct realization.
Eckhart TolleA sentence begins quite simply, then it undulates and expands, parentheses intervene like quick-set hedges, the flowers of comparison bloom, and three fields off, like a wounded partridge, crouches the principal verb, making one wonder as one picks it up, poor little thing, whether after all it was worth such a tramp, so many guns, and such expensive dogs, and what, after all, is its relation to the main subject, potted so gaily half a page back, and proving finally to have been in the accusative case.
E. M. ForsterHe had learned well the law of club and fang, and he never forewent an advantage or drew back from a foe he had started on the way to Death. He had lessoned from Spitz, and from the chief fighting dogs of the police and mail, and knew there was no middle course. He must master or be mastered; while to show mercy was a weakness. mercy did not exist in the primordial life. It was misunderstood for fear, and such misunderstandings made for death. Kill or be killed, eat or be eaten, was the law; and this mandate, down out of the depths of Time, he obeyed.
