"Don’t accept your dog’s admiration as conclusive evidence that you are wonderful." ― Ann Landers Topic(s): Pet More From Ann Landers "Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses." "The Lord gave us two ends – one to sit on and the other to think with. Success depends on which one we use the most." "People who drink to drown their sorrow should be told that sorrow knows how to swim."
