“They say God never gives us more than we can handle, but sometimes I think God has overestimated what I can take.”
Blaize Clement“Protecting people from the truth is another way of shutting them out.”
Blaize Clement“Perfume companies ought to bottle the smell of crisp bacon. Forget pheromones. I’ll bet a woman with a little spot of bacon grease behind her ears would attract every male within a five-mile radius.”
Blaize Clement, Curiosity Killed the Cat Sitter“They say God never gives us more than we can handle, but sometimes I think God has overestimated what I can take.”
Blaize Clement, Curiosity Killed the Cat Sitter“Now here's the thing about being a little off-center; you're never sure if you're a bona fide loon or if you have insight that other people don't have.You have to navigate through life using a kind of psychic gyroscope to keep from falling too far one way or another, and you feel a peculiar kinship with other people who are also a little bit off-center.”
Blaize Clement, Even Cat Sitters Get the Blues“My pet-sitting day ends around sunset, and it's very satisfying to know that I've made several living beings happy that day. That I left their food bowls sparkling clean and fresh water in their water bowls. That I brushed them so their coats shined, and played with them until all our hearts were beating faster. That I kissed them goodbye and left them with their tails wagging or flipping or at least raised in a happy kind of way. That's a heck of a lot more than any president, pope, prime minister, or potentate can say, and I wouldn't switch places with any of them.”
