More quotes by Clive Barker
One of the things I'm trying to do over and over again in my books is create new mythologies, create new ways to understand the complexity of the world. I think what mythology does is impress upon chaotic experience the patterns, hierarchies and shapes which allow us to interpret the chaos and make fresh sense of it.
Clive Barker
My life is in the art that I make, and I'm very happy with it.
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
All I ever wanted to do is darken the day and brighten the night
Clive Barker
You must be careful with kindness. It's usually mistaken for weakness by stupid people.
Clive Barker
Perhaps sunlight had always been luminous, and doorways signs of greater passage than that of one room to another. But she’d not noticed it until now.
Clive Barker
I haven't even had a life I could call my own, and you're ready to slot me into the grand design. Well, I don't think I want to go. I want to be my own design.
Clive Barker
My feet are killing me. I knew somebody who had feet like that. They'd walk all over him. Archie Kashanian was his name. He used to wake up with footprints all over his chest, all over his face. It was the death of him, finally.

Angels have very nasty tempers. Especially when they’re feeling righteous.
Clive Barker
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.
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
Funny that. We live in islands of Hours and we never seem to have time enough for anything.
Clive Barker
Everybody is a book of blood wherever we're opened, we're red.
Clive Barker
Books should make somebody look at how they feel, be honest with themselves.
Clive Barker
..She had that brand of pragmatism that would find her the first brewing tea after Armageddon.
Clive Barker
There are lives lived for love, and lives lived for art. We, happy band, have chosen the later persuasion.
Clive Barker
Whatever capacity she possesses to supernaturally beguile a human soul—and she possesses many—she liked his clear-sightedness too well, to blind him that way.
Clive Barker
You just have to trust your own madness.
Clive Barker
Maybe the man had taken the wrong turning, but at least he'd travelled some extraordinary roads.
Clive Barker
I can see in your eyes that there’s no seam of untapped joy left in you. The best of life has come and gone. Those days when sudden epiphanies swept over you, and you had visions of the rightness of all things and of your place amongst them they’re history. You’re in a darker place now.
