“[At the scene of a murder]

The cats' bloodthirst was normal; it was the way God had made them. They were hunters, they killed for food and to train their young--well maybe sometimes for sport. But this violent act by some unknown human had nothing to do with hunting--for a human to brutally maim one of the own kind out of rage or sadism or greed was, to Joe and Dulcie (the cats), a shocking degradation of the human condition. To imagine that vicious abandon in a human deeply distressed Dulcie; she did not like thinking about humans that way.”
― Shirley Rousseau Murphy, Cat in the Dark

“I believe that people who are devoutly religious, within any specific religion, have no true respect for the ultimate vastness that is God.”
― Clair Huffaker, The Cowboy and the Cossack

“I hope people don't take kittens on a whim, like they would a toy, then not care for them.”
― Shirley Rousseau Murphy, Cat on the Money
