More quotes by Gladys Taber
the tentacles of today reach out like an octopus to swallow yesterday.
Gladys Taber
Most cats feel that bird-catching is their duty the instinct goes back to prehistoric times. Amber keeps in practice by chasing moths.
Gladys Taber
I cannot imagine a cat in an Obedience ring, running around in the hot sun and doing things on command. For it would not make sense. Whereas a dog is tolerant of your not making sense and only wants to fix things so you are happy.
Gladys Taber
After all, catching something is purely a by-product of our fishing. It is the act of fishing that wipes away all grief, lightens all worry, dissolves fear and anxiety.
Gladys Taber
The curious thing about fishing is you never want to go home. If you catch something, you can't stop. If you don't catch anything, you hate to leave in case something might bite.
Gladys Taber
There must be hundreds of unsung heroes and heroines who first tasted strange things growing - and think of the man who first ate a lobster. This staggers the imagination. I salute him every time I take my nutcracker in hand and move the melted-butter pipkin closer.
Gladys Taber
A good recipe for a human reducing breakfast is a lot of good things to eat, and three spaniels and two cats to eat with.

Life is a process of discovery, of new perceptions.
Gladys Taber
November wind has a sound different from any other. It is easy to imagine the cave of the winds in some mythical Northland where the winds are born and the gods send them out to conquer the quiet air.
Gladys Taber
My own recipe for world peace is a bit of land for everyone.
Gladys Taber
April is a promise of what's to come.
Gladys Taber
Pride may go before a fall, but jealousy goes before destruction.
Gladys Taber
There is a kind of immortality in every garden.
Gladys Taber
Father was the most unreconciled taxpayer I ever knew.
Gladys Taber
Old houses, I thought, do not belong to people ever, not really, people belong to them.
Gladys Taber
Dog lovers are a good breed themselves.
Gladys Taber
We need time to dream, time to remember, and time to reach the infinite. Time to be.
Gladys Taber
Happiness of heart can never be measured out and bundled up, it's intangible. We keep running after it, grasping for it, and the heat of our running so seldom brings it closer. But now and then there may be a moment. We look at something and know it is good and beautiful. Those moments are happiness.
Gladys Taber
Christmas is a bridge. We need bridges as the river of time flows past. Today's Christmas should mean creating happy hours for tomorrow and reliving those of yesterday.
Gladys Taber
Almost all words do have colour and nothing is more pleasant than to utter a pink word and see someone's eyes light up and know it is a pink word for him or her too.
