If there is a heaven, it's certain our animals are to be there. Their lives become so interwoven with our own, it would take more than an archangel to detangle them.
Pam Brown

A bag of apples, a pot of homemade jam, a scribbled note, a bunch of golden flowers, a coloured pebble, a box of seedlings, an empty scent bottle for the children. . . . Who needs diamonds and van-delivered bouquets?

For every person who has ever lived there has come, at last, a spring he will never see. Glory then in the springs that are yours.

The child who ran weeping to you with a cut finger is now brought home, smiling gamely, with a broken collarbone and incredible contusions- 'it wasn't Jezebels fault, Dad.'

A younger sister is someone to use as a guinea-pig in trying sledges and experimental go-carts. Someone to send on messages to Mum. But someone who needs you - who comes to you with bumped heads, grazed knees, tales of persecution. Someone who trusts you to defend her. Someone who thinks you know the answers to almost everything.

Becoming a grandmother is wonderful. One moment you're just a mother. The next you are all-wise and prehistoric.

Medicines may be necessary. Flowers lift the heart. But your smile is the best restorative of all.
Pam Brown
Image
Sisters share the scent and smells... the feel of a common childhood.

Dads are most ordinary men turned by love into heroes, adventurers, story-tellers, singers of songs.
Pam Brown
Image
A horse is the projection of peoples' dreams about themselves - strong, powerful, beautiful - and it has the capability of giving us escape from our mundane existence.
Pam Brown
Image
The work of a garden bears visible fruits-in a world where most of our labours seem suspiciously meaningless.
Pam Brown
Image
We expect too much at Christmas. It's got to be magical. It's got to go right. Feasting. Fun. The perfect present. All that anticipation. Take it easy. Love's the thing. The rest is tinsel.
Pam Brown
Image
Always smile back at little children. To ignore them is to destroy their belief that the world is good.

The trouble with sharing one's bed with cats is that they'd rather sleep on you than beside you.
Pam Brown
Image
Human beings are drawn to cats because they are all we are not — self-contained, elegant in everything they do, relaxed, assured, glad of company, yet still possessing secret lives.

A cat likes to hear you calling him. He sits in a bush a yard from your shoes - and listens.
