A man kills the thing he loves, and he must die a little himself.
Clive Barker

If we have nothing to do but service our own pleasure - because society has taught us that's all we're worth and we're exiled from positions of authority from which we could actually shape society - then we just become hedonists. Eventually, despite how great it may look on Saturday night, come Monday morning there's just purposelessness.

Clive Barker
Image
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
Image
There is no such thing as originality. It has all been said before, suffered before. If a person knows that, is it any wonder love becomes mechanical and death just a scene to be shunned? There is no absolute knowledge to be gained from either. Just another ride on the merry-go-round, another blurred scene of faces smiling and faces grieved.

Sooner or later even the most ambitious glutton must crawl away and seek the solace of the vomitorium.
Clive Barker

Often people who are wonderful with animals aren't always terribly good with human beings.
Clive Barker
Image
For a writer, and particularly a writer of my genre, which is the fantastical, I think that it's to my advantage to feel remote from and disconnected from the world of deal making.
Clive Barker
Image
I have the normal complement of anxieties, neuroses, psychoses and whatever else - but I'm absolutely nothing special.
