Which quotation from "the black cat" best supports the inference that the narrator feels he deserves to be punished for his cruelty?

The quotation is, “…I experienced a sentiment half of horror, half of remorse, for the crime of which I had been guilty; but it was, at best, a feeble and equivocal feeling, and the soul remained untouched.” This quotation shows that he feels he must be punished because it mentions remorse and guilt. He admits his guilt in the statement but also admits that he only truly feels it feebly, not intensely. He understands logically that he has done wrong and feels some guilt for that, but is unable to feel it with much intensity.
