Famous quotes containing the word cat:
“And how do you know that youre mad?
To begin with, the Cat said, a dogs not mad. You grant that?
I suppose so, said Alice.
Well then, the Cat went on, you see a dog growls when its angry, and wags its tail when its pleased. Now I growl when Im pleased, and wag my tail when Im angry. Therefore Im mad.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
