If your sister is in a tearing hurry to go out and cannot catch your eye, she's wearing your best sweater.

Sisters share the scent and smells - the feel of a common childhood.

An older sister is a friend and defender - a listener, conspirator, a counsellor and a sharer of delights. And sorrows too.

Grandmothers and grandchildren have a lot in common. They are inclined to straggle behind on walks. They doze off at unexpected moments. They like fancy cakes. They are very fond of cats and know how to talk to them. They are given to falling over. They get the giggles.

A friendship can weather most things and thrive in thin soil; but it needs a little mulch of letters and phone calls and small, silly presents every so often--just to save it from drying out completely.

Sisters don't need words. They have perfected a language of snarls and smiles and frowns and winks - expressions of shocked surprise and incredulity and disbelief. Sniffs and snorts and gasps and sighs - that can undermine any tale you're telling

A horse can lend its rider the speed and strength he or she lacks but the rider who is wise remembers it is no more then a loan.

A teddy bear does not depend upon mechanics to give him the semblance of life. He is loved - and therefore he lives.

Sisters annoy, interfere, criticize. Indulge in monumental sulks, in huffs, in snide remarks. Borrow. Break. Monopolize the bathroom. Are always underfoot. But if catastrophe should strike, sisters are there. Defending you against all comers.

For every person who has ever lived there has come, at last, a spring he will never see. Glory then in the springs that are yours.

Becoming a grandmother is wonderful. One moment youre just a mother. The next you are all wise and prehistoric.

Odd how much it hurts when a friend moves away and leaves behind only silence.

A horse is the projection of peoples dreams about themselves strong powerful beautiful. And it has the capability of giving us escape from our mundane existence.

Horses lend us the wings we lack.

Sisters never quite forgive each other for what happened when they were five.

One small cat changes coming home to an empty house to coming home.

Dads are most ordinary men turned by love into heroes adventurers story tellers singers of songs.

If your sister is in a tearing hurry to go out and cannot catch your eye, she’s wearing your best sweater.

A cat can maintain a position of curled up somnolence on your knee until you are nearly upright. To the last minute she hopes your conscience will get the better of you and you will settle down again.

Always smile back at little children. To ignore them is to destroy their belief that the world is good.

Kittens are wide-eyed, soft and sweet. With needles in their jaws and feet.

When sisters stand shoulder to shoulder, who stands a chance against us?

A horse is the projection of peoples' dreams about themselves - strong, powerful, beautiful - and it has the capability of giving us escape from our mundane existence.

In a world gone bad, a bear - even a bear standing on its head - is a comforting, uncomplicated, dependable hunk of sanity.

Dads are the most ordinary men turned by love into heroes adventurers story-tellers and singers of song.

A teddy bear is your childhood wrapped up in faded yellow fur, and as such, he commands affection long after he is out grown.

The courage of very ordinary people is all that stands between us and the dark.

The trouble with sharing ones bed with cats is that theyd rather sleep on you than beside you.

Cats can work out mathematically the exact place to sit that will cause most inconvenience.
