“If you want to write, keep cats.”
“If you want to be a psychological novelist and write about human beings, the best thing you can do is keep a pair of cats.”
“And what strange voices they have! Sometimes like the complaining of small children; sometimes like the noise of lambs.”
“Proportion ... You can't help thinking about it in these London streets, where it doesn't exist ... It's like listening to a symphony of cats to walk along them. Senseless discords and a horrible disorder all the way ... We need no barbarians from outside; they're on the premises, all the time.”
“If Men and Women took their Pleasures as noisily as the Cats, what Londoner could ever hope to sleep of nights?”
