Matching Quote

"I have given my pain a name and call it "dog"Mit is every bit as faithful, every bit as nosey and shameless, every bit as entertaining, every bit as clever as any other dog—and I can boss it around and vent my bad moods on it, just as others do with their dogs, servants, and wives."

-Friedrich Nietzsche
