Never were two people more opposite in sentiment than my companions.

Our perfect companions never have fewer than four feet.
Sidonie Gabrielle Colette

People always joke that "dog" spells "god" backwards. They should consider that it might be the higher power coming down to see just how well they do, what kind of people they are. The animals are right here, right in front of us. And how we treat these companions is a test.
Linda Blair

Pleasure and pain, though directly opposite are contrived to be constant companions.

John Clare

The animals are right here, right in front of us. And how we treat these companions is a test.
Linda Blair

Henry Fielding

When thinking about companions gone, we feel ourselves doubly alone.
Walter Scott

Why should we be in such desperate haste to succeed, and in such desperate enterprises? If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer.
Henry David Thoreau

Wine and cheese are ageless companions, like aspirin and aches, or June and moon, or good people and noble ventures.
M. F. K. Fisher

Wives are young men's mistresses, companions for middle age, and old men's nurses.
Francis Bacon
