Sometimes in my tent, late at night, I think I can hear the stars scraping against the sky Picture Quote #1

The harder survival becomes, the more you want to pull together. And the more you want to pull together, the harder survival becomes Picture Quote #1

It wasn’t aliens that first made us gear up for war; it was our fellow humans Picture Quote #1

Still, you tend to believe what you always believed, think what you always thought, expect what you always expected Picture Quote #1

It’s almost dawn. You can feel it coming. The world holds its breath, because there’s really no guarantee that the sun will rise. That there was a yesterday doesn’t mean there will be a tomorrow Picture Quote #1

A man lies upon the floor, spreads his arms, and transforms himself into a ship of a thousand sails Picture Quote #1

So often the monsters that crowd our minds are nothing more than the strange and thoroughly alien progeny of our own fearful fantasies Picture Quote #1

You never know when the truth will come home. You can’t choose the time. The time chooses you Picture Quote #1

Maybe you reach a certain point in evolution where boredom is the greatest threat to your survival. Maybe this isn’t a planetary takeover at all, but a game. Like a kid pulling wings off flies Picture Quote #1

A child has little defense against the sight of a parent laid low. Parents, like the earth beneath our feet and the sun above our heads, are immutable objects, eternal and reliable. If one should fall, who might vouch the sun itself won’t fall, burning, into the sea? Picture Quote #1

I do not mean to mock or ridicule your life’s work, for in one way at least it mimics my own: We have dedicated our lives to the pursuit of phantoms. The difference is the nature of those phantoms. Mine exist between other men’s ears; yours live solely between your own Picture Quote #1

A moment comes in war when the last line must be crossed. The line that separates what you hold dear from what total war demands. If he couldn’t cross that line, the battle was over, and he was lost. His heart, the war. Her face, the battlefield. With a cry only he could hear, the hunter turned. And ran Picture Quote #1

Soon I will fall asleep and I will wake from this terrible dream. The endless night will fall, and I will rise. I long for that night. I do not fear it. I have had my fill of fear. I have stared too long into the abyss, and now the abyss stares back at me Picture Quote #1

To show mercy is not naïve. To hold out against the end of hope is not stupidity or madness. It is fundamentally human. Of course... We are all doomed; we are all poisoned from our birth by the rot of stars. That does not mean we should succumb... to the seductive fallacy of despair, the dark tide that would drown us. You may think I’m stupid, you may call me a madman and a fool, but at least I stand upright in a fallen world Picture Quote #1
