Any member introducing a dog into the Society's premises shall be liable to a fine of one pound. Any animal leading a blind person shall be deemed to be a cat.

Oxford Union Society,London, Rule 46

In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him.

Dereke Bruce

If cats could talk, they wouldn't.

I got a kick out of the first one. Rule 46. There must be a rich history behind that quote. I scanned the rules and a lot of them had something to do with money. Sometimes there is more than meets the eye.
