More quotes by Alexander Gordon Smith
There always has to be someone to take the punches. That's how it works. It isn't fair, it isn't right, but that kid licking slop off the floor over there means that we get to eat in peace.
Alexander Gordon Smith
As soon as reality breaks, as soon as we're separated from the phsical world, the cracks begin to appear in our minds. And through them seeps the madness that has always been there, flowing into your skull like a liquid nightmare.
Alexander Gordon Smith
I'd been so set on an escape that was now impossible, and the only form of freedom left to me was death. It was a terrible kind of freedom—one from misery and pain, yes, but also one from lightness and laughter and life. It was an absence of everything.
Alexander Gordon Smith

Alexander Gordon Smith
The human mind is a powerful thing in many ways, but in others it's endlessly fragile—it takes only a single moment of pure terror to tear a hole in it, like a finger through a cobweb, leaving you forever just a shadow, a half-person.
Alexander Gordon Smith
Knackered inmates are easier to control than pumped-up ones. And dead inmates are even easier to control, if you follow me.
Alexander Gordon Smith
No, every person on this planet has darkness inside them. Buried so deep that only you know it's there when your world is coming to an end. Oh, but it's there. It's always there.
Alexander Gordon Smith
Better to be a spirit with the earth beneath you than a corpse pinned tight by the weight of the world.
Alexander Gordon Smith
Nobody cares. You shouldn't either.
Alexander Gordon Smith
Let's make like a hockey player and get the puck out of here.
Alexander Gordon Smith
And when reality denies you the tools you need for survival you grab them from wherever you can.
Alexander Gordon Smith
You don't see heroism, humanity and hope like you do in a horror story. Horror celebrates the kind of friendship that keeps you standing shoulder to shoulder with someone even when the world is falling apart around you.
