    W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)

    Cats are the ultimate narcissists. You can tell this because of all the time they spend on personal grooming. Dogs aren’t like this. A dog’s idea of personal grooming is to roll in a dead fish. Dogs spend their time thinking about doing good deeds for their masters, or sleeping.
    James Gorman (b. 1949)

    The dress makes the person; the saddle the horse.
    Chinese proverb.

    In New York, pretending to be above the struggle means no seat on the bus and a table next to the kitchen.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    The horse is taught his manage, and no star
    Of wildest course but treads back his own steps;
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
