  • Dogs Quote #1

    A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.

    Charles Darwin

  • Dogs Quote #2

    A pile of hairy towels is not a passable substitute for a dog.

    Jarod Kintz
  • Dogs Quote #3

    A strongly accentuated zoophilism, such as an inordinate love of horses or dogs, throws the emotional nature out of balance; and those who are possessed by it are not likely to care very much for people.

    W.E. Woodward
  • Dogs Quote #4

    A vast silence reigned over the land. The land itself was a desolation, lifeless, without movement, so lone and cold that the spirit of it was not even that of sadness. There was a hint in it of laughter, but of laughter more terrible than any sadness-a laughter that was mirthless as the smile of the Sphinx, a laughter cold as the frost and partaking of the grimness of infallibility. It was the masterful and incommunicable wisdom of eternity laughing at the futility of life and the effort of life. It was the Wild, the savage, frozen-hearted Northland Wild.

    A wagaday!

    Gloria Yarina
  • Dogs Quote #6

    A well-trained dog is like religion, it sets the deserving at their ease and is a terror to evildoers.

    Elizabeth Goudge
  • Dogs Quote #7

    After his dinner, the wolfhound liked to prowl the grounds, sniffing the grass to learn what creatures of field and forest had recently visited. The yard was Merlin's newspaper.

    Dean Koontz
  • Dogs Quote #8

    After we bring food home from the grocery store...Dogs must think we are the greatest hunters ever!

    Ann Taylor
  • Dogs Quote #9

    After years of having a dog, you know him. You know the meaning of his snuffs and grunts and barks. Every twitch of the ears is a question or statement, every wag of the tail is an exclamation.

    Robert McCammon
  • Dogs Quote #10

    Almondine

    Eventually, she understood the house was keeping a secret from her.

    All that winter and all through the spring Almondine had known something was going to happen, but no matter where she looked she couldn’t find it. Sometimes, when she entered a room, there was the feeling that the thing that was going to happen had just been there, and she would stop and pant and peer around while the feeling seeped away as mysteriously as it had arrived. Weeks might pass without a sign, and then a night would come, when, lying nose to tail beneath the window in the kitchen corner, listening to the murmur of conversation and the slosh and clink of dishes being washed, she felt it in the house again and she whisked her tail in long, pensive strokes across the baseboards and silently collected her feet beneath her and waited. When half an hour passed and nothing appeared, she groaned and sighed and rolled onto her back and waited to see if it was somewhere in her sleep.

    David Wroblewski
  • Dogs Quote #11

    Always listen to your dog.

    Margaret Mizushima
  • Dogs Quote #12

    An open mind and helpful hands can do much to change a dog's future.

    Mary Debono
  • Dogs Quote #13

    And he had a dog, a nice dog. He couldn’t be too evil or dangerous if he had such a great dog.

    Molly Ringle
  • Dogs Quote #14

    And I figured that he can be my ears and I can be his eyes. A good trade-off, don't you think?

    Alison Jackson
  • Dogs Quote #15

    And it is exceedingly short, his galloping life. Dogs die so soon. I have my stories of that grief, no doubt many of you do also. It is almost a failure of will, a failure of love, to let them grow old—or so it feels. We would do anything to keep them with us, and to keep them young. The one gift we cannot give.

    Mary Oliver
  • Dogs Quote #16

    And so what do dogs want? They want what they want when they want it. Just like us.

    Ted Kerasote
  • Dogs Quote #17

    And then there were cats, thought Dog. He'd surprised the huge ginger cat from next door and had attempted to reduce it to cowering jelly by means of the usual glowing stare and deep-throated growl, which had always worked on the damned in the past. This time they had earned him a whack on the nose that had made his eyes water. Cats, Dog considered, were clearly a lot tougher than lost souls. He was looking forward to a further cat experiment, which he planned would consist of jumping around and yapping excitedly at it. It was a long shot, but it just might work.

    Terry Pratchett
  • Dogs Quote #18

    And what cats have to tell
    on each return from hell
    is this: that dying is what the living do,
    that dying is what the loving do,
    and that dead dogs are those who do not know
    that dying is what, to live, each has to do.

    Alastair Reid
  • Dogs Quote #19

    Andy once clipped a magazine article about how black dogs are always the last to be adopted at shelters and, therefore, more likely to be put down. Which is totally Dog Racism, if you ask me.

    Stephanie Perkins
  • Dogs Quote #20

    Angels do not enter a house where there is a dog.

    Anonymous
  • Dogs Quote #21

    Animals are precious gifts offering unconditional love.

    Kat Kaelin
  • Dogs Quote #22

    Animals store their fears and at times OUR fears in the body and manifest physical illnesses like we do. Like us, these fears may have occurred in infancy and are still carried in the adult body.

    Colleen M. Flanagan
  • Dogs Quote #23

    Another of the great civilizations, the Aztecs, raised a breed of hairless chihuahuas especially for eating. When the Conquistadors arrived and found dog on the menu, they were of the same opinion as Mademoiselle, that this was evidence of the worst form of barbarism. They, the Spaniards, used dogs as befits civilized and Christian men - to hunt down fugitive Indians and tear them to pieces.

    Medlar Lucan
  • Dogs Quote #24

    Another thing I take issue with are people who take their dogs on play dates, or even worse, people who choose to dress their dogs up in outfits better suited for homosexuals participating in a gay pride parade. Dog costumes are right up there with something else I find particularly offensive: sweater vests.

    Chelsea Handler
  • Dogs Quote #25

    Any man with money to make the purchase may become a dog's owner. But no man --spend he ever so much coin and food and tact in the effort-- may become a dog's Master without consent of the dog. Do you get the difference? And he whom a dog once unreservedly accepts as Master is forever that dog's God.

    Albert Payson Terhune
  • Dogs Quote #26

    Anyone out without the excuse of a dog
    should be handcuffed
    and searched for loneliness.

    Stephen Dunn
  • Dogs Quote #27

    Anyone who has no need of anybody but himself is either a beast or a God.
    Aristotle

    Bruce Wayne Sullivan
  • Dogs Quote #28

    As dogs return to their vomit, some men return to their wives.

    Anthony Liccione
  • Dogs Quote #29

    As much as we look up at the stars and know there is more than life on earth, the divinity of dogs is just as unexplainable and profound. They may be the purest example of divine love in an earthly soul many of us ever experience. If we take their lead, open our hearts, and embrace their love, we may just find our own journey a lot more enlightening.

    Jennifer Skiff
  • Dogs Quote #30

    As wonderful as dogs can be, they are famous for missing the point.
