Thomas C. Hinkle > Quotes

“Wealthy young Tom Glen had always had all he wanted until this – and now he sat miserable, unhappy – all because of a dog.”
― Thomas C. Hinkle, Shag: The Story of a Dog

“A week passed, then Shag came back. He rushed in one morning early, his coat wet with dew, his eyes wide, and shining with hope. Again he was in his own blessed home with Tom Glen, and always to Shag, home was anywhere this man might be. There was no road too long, no way too rough, no night too dark for Shag to find him if only permitted.”
― Thomas C. Hinkle, Shag: The Story of a Dog

“My guess is that Shag’s waiting – something in him tells him to wait – and whatever it is that tells him – it’s that which makes him understand how he must fight that wolf, if the time ever comes when he has a chance.”
― Thomas C. Hinkle, Shag: The Story of a Dog
