Famous quotes containing the words cat and/or behavior:
“One of the most striking differences between a cat and a lie is that a cat has only nine lives.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Excessive attention, even if it’s negative, is such a powerful “reward” to a child that it actually reinforces the undesirable behavior. You need to learn restraint, to respond to far fewer situations, to ask yourself questions like, “Is this really important?” “Could I let this behavior go?” “What would happen if I just wait?” “Could I lose by doing nothing?””
—Stanley Turecki (20th century)
