Josh Billings

"Life consists not in holding good cards but in playing those you hold well."

"In the whole history of the world there is but one thing that money cannot buy...to wit--the wag of a dog's tail."

"Success does not consist in never making blunders, but in never making the same one a second time."

"Love looks through a telescope; envy, through a microscope."

"A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than you love yourself."
