Never close your lips to those whom you have already opened... - Charles Dickens

"What greater gift than the love of a cat."

"Never close your lips to those whom you have already opened your heart."

"Fan the sinking flame of hilarity with the wing of friendship; and pass the rosy wine."

"A man is lucky if he is the first love of a woman. A woman is lucky if she is the last love of a man."

"Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts."
