Imitate the ass in his love to his master.

Animals are good to think with.

Happiness is a warm puppy.

Life is no way to treat an animal.

Man is the only animal that can remain on friendly terms with the victims he intends to eat until he eats them.

There are some who, if a cat accidentally comes into the room, though they neither see it nor are told of it, will presently be in a sweat and ready to die away.

Man is a troublesome animal and therefore is not very manageable.

I hate the sight of monkeys; they remind me so of poor relations.

Of all the creatures that breathe and creep on the surface of the earth, none is more to be pitied than man.

Who hears the fishes when they cry?

A bull contents himself with one meadow, and one forest is enough for a thousand elephants; but the little body of a man devours more than all other living creatures.

Who sleepeth with dogs shall rise with fleas.

How like to us is that filthy beast the ape.
