“Ever think of becoming a cop?"

"I did, but at the time there wasn't much opportunity for women. Lady cops were confined to typing, taking shorthand, and the juvenile division."

"And I don't suppose you have any womanly skills like typing or taking shorthand?"

I smiled. "No, but I'm a mean shot with a .38 and I bake terrific bread.”
Marcia Muller, Edwin of the Iron Shoes

“The human animal only sees what it wants to see.”
Marcia Muller, Beyond the Grave

“You believe. You just don’t put a name to it.”
Marcia Muller, A Wild and Lonely Place
