Quotes edit see section history

• “Because of him, for the first time in a long time, I appreciate the simple moments with my dog at my side. And not just because it was so hard for Tuesday and me to achieve them, but because moments of quiet friendship are what make life — everyone's life — so grand.”

• “I was once told there are two types of dogs: leaners and nonleaners. Leaners are always touching you, rubbing against your hip when they walk past, flopping on your feet when they rest, putting their paws on your lap when you sit down. Non-leaners stand a few feet away, lie near you but never on top of you. This is not lack of affection. They are with you, but they want their space.”

• The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature. —ANNE FRANK
