I had rather see the portrait of a dog that I know, than all the allegorical paintings they can show me in the world.

By seeing London, I have seen as much of life as the world can show.

I'd rather betray the world than let the world betray me.

Dogs have not the power of comparing. A dog will take a small piece of meat as readily as a large, when both are before him.

I'd rather have a hot dog than caviar.

You hesitate to stab me with a word, and know not - silence is the sharper sword.
