The more I know about men, the more I love my dog.

aber die Möglichkeit sie zu bekommen.

Egal wie wenig Geld und Besitz du hast, einen Hund zu haben, macht dich reich.

If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and man.
Mark Twain

Der eigene Hund macht keinen Lärm, er bellt nur.
Kurt Tucholsky

Owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are god. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realize that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are gods.
Christopher Hitchens

Je mehr ich von den Menschen sehe, um so lieber habe ich meinen Hund.
Friedrich der Große

“Meow” means “woof” in cat.
George Carlin

Vielleicht stünde es besser um die Welt, wenn die Menschen Maulkörbe und die Hunde Gesetze bekämen.
George Bernard Shaw

Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring--it was peace.
Milan Kundera

Alles Wissen, die Gesamtheit aller Fragen und alle Antworten ist in den Hunden enthalten.
Franz Kafka

I am fond of pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.
Winston Churchill

Hunde! Wenn es sie nicht gäbe, man müsste sie erfinden.
Martin Pietralla

A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.
Josh Billings

Ein Zentimeter Hund ist mir lieber als ein Kilometer Stammbaum.
Dana Burnett

If animals could speak, the dog would be a blundering outspoken fellow; but the cat would have the rare grace of never saying a word too much.
Mark Twain

Wer nie einen Hund gehabt hat, weiß nicht, was Lieben und Geliebtwerden heißt.
Arthur Schopenhauer

If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went.

Mein Hund ist als Hund eine Katastrophe, aber als Mensch unersetzlich.
Johannes Rau

Heaven goes by favor. If it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in.
Mark Twain

Sei meines Hundes Freund, und du bist auch der meine.
Indianisches Sprichwort

A bone to the dog is not charity. Charity is the bone shared with the dog, when you are just as hungry as the dog.
Jack London

Ein Hund hat die Seele eines Philosophen. (Platon) Mit einem kurzen Schwanzwedeln kann ein Hund mehr Gefühle ausdrücken, als mancher Mensch mit stundenlangem Gerede.
Louis Armstrong

The only creatures that are evolved enough to convey pure love are dogs and infants.
Johnny Depp

Der einzig absolute Freund, den ein Mensch in dieser selbstsüchtigen Welt haben kann, der ihn nie verlässt, der sich nie undankbar oder betrügerisch verhält, ist sein Hund.
Woody Allen

A person can learn a lot from a dog, even a loopy one like ours. Marley taught me about living each day with unbridled exuberance and joy, about seizing the moment and following your heart. He taught me to appreciate the simple things-a walk in the woods, a fresh snowfall, a nap in a shaft of winter sunlight. And as he grew old and achy, he taught me about optimism in the face of adversity. Mostly, he taught me about friendship and selflessness and, above all else, unwavering loyalty.
John Grogan

Wenn du einen verhungernden Hund aufliest und machst ihn satt, dann wird er dich nicht beißen. Das ist der Grundunterschied zwischen Hund und Mensch.
Mark Twain

All his life he tried to be a good person. Many times, however, he failed. For after all, he was only human. He wasn't a dog.
Charles M. Schulz

Die kalte Schnauze eines Hundes ist erfreulich warm gegen die Kaltschnäuzigkeit mancher Mitmenschen.
Ernst R. Hauschka

The dog is a gentleman; I hope to go to his heaven not man's.
Mark Twain

Just give me a comfortable couch, a dog, a good book, and a woman. Then if you can get the dog to go somewhere and read the book, I might have a little fun.
Groucho Marx

A dog reflects the family life. Whoever saw a frisky dog in a gloomy family, or a sad dog in a happy one? Snarling people have snarling dogs, dangerous people have dangerous ones.
Arthur Conan Doyle

The average dog is a nicer person than the average person.
Andy Rooney

Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.
Roger A. Caras

Bulldogs are adorable, with faces like toads that have been sat on. My hounds are bred out of the Spartan kind; So flew'd, so sanded; their heads are hung with ears that sweep away the morning dew...
William Shakespeare

Ay, in the catalogue ye go for men;
As hounds, and greyhounds, mongrels, spaniels, curs,
Shoughs, water-rugs, and demi-wolves, are 'clept
All by the name of dogs: the valued file
Distinguishes the swift, the slow, the subtle,
The housekeeper, the hunter, every one
According to the gift which bounteous nature
Hath in him closed.
William Shakespeare
