More quotes by Clive Barker

Here you have the masses, whom you would love to love, appearing at your front door with their faces falling off and you're trying to be as humane as you possibly can, but they are, after all, eating the cat. And the fear of mass activity, of mindlessness on a national scale, underlies my fear of zombies.

Clive Barker
I know that I want to bring sex and horror together as I have been able to in my books.
Clive Barker
Everything is in flux: everything changes the body changes, the soul changes. We are capable of extraordinary self-transmutat ion and internal self-transforma tion.
Clive Barker
To call you excrement would be an insult to the product of my bowels.
Clive Barker

Never believe your eyes
Clive Barker
Sung to the tune of O Christmas Tree O woe is me, O woe is me, I used to have a hamster tree, But it was eaten by a newt, And now I have no cuddly fruit, O woe is me, O woe is me, I used to have a hamster tree!
Clive Barker
What worth was a man who could not be haunted?
Clive Barker
A man kills the thing he loves, and he must die a little himself.
