Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.

Robert Heinlein. Just for this quote I can forgive him his stereotypical female characters.

Oh, I adore that quote too. :biggrin:

My daily muse: "If a man does his best, what else is there?" - General George S. Patton (1885-1945)

Ripped off Simon de Monfort alleged sentence : "Kill them off and let God decide", talking about the Albigeois Crusade (or should I say genocide ?).

Oooh, French pride. :biggrin:

Here's one more about cats:

"Such nonsense!" declared Dr. Greysteel. "Whoever heard of cats doing anything useful!"

"Except for staring at one in a supercilious manner," said Strange. "That has a sort of moral usefulness, I suppose, in making one feel uncomfortable and encouraging sober reflection upon one’s own imperfections."

- Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell, by Susanna Clarke
