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
There is a kind of immortality in every garden.
Gladys Taber
I suppose I am a sparrow, a stay-at-home bird.
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
Pride may go before a fall, but jealousy goes before destruction.
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.
Gladys Taber
Dog lovers are a good breed themselves.
