“Cats were the gangsters of the animal world, living outside the law and often dying there. There were a great many of them who never grew old by the fire.”

“Silent white light filled the world. And the righteous and unrighteous alike were consumed in that holy fire.”

“He’s my cat! He’s not God’s cat! Let God have his own cat! Let God have all the damn old cats He wants, and kill them all! Church is mine!”

“A person’s never too old for stories. Man and boy, girl and woman, we live for them. - Roland Deschain”

“A cat won't curry favor even if it's in their best interests to do so. A cat can't be a hypocrite. If more preachers were like cats, this would be a more religious country.”

“Churchbells were calling the faithful to worship, and outside it was a beautiful day”

“They were drugged, stone in love. To them every scar on the face of the world was a beauty mark.”
