My mother thought it would make us feel better to know that animals had no souls, and thus their deaths were not to be taken seriously. But it didn't help, and when I think of some of the animals I have known, I wonder. The only really "soulful" eyes in the world belong to the dog or cat who sits on your lap or at your feet, commiserating when you cry. —Liz Smith More about this quote Tags: feeling sorrow death eyes dogs cats animals souls Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email
