More quotes by David Mitchell
The truth of a myth...is not in its words but its patterns.
David Mitchell
The mind abhors a vacancy & is wont to people it with phantoms.
David Mitchell

David Mitchell
The most malicious god is the god of the counted chicken.
David Mitchell

David Mitchell
People are obscenities. Would rather be music than be a mass of tubes squeezing semisolids around itself for a few decades before becoming so dribblesome it'll no longer function.
David Mitchell
The healthy can't understand the emptied, the broken.
David Mitchell
What is poker? A card game where abler liars take money off less able liars.
David Mitchell
Nothing is as eloquent as nothing.
David Mitchell
Music’s a wood you walk through.
David Mitchell
I think we think in terms of stories.
David Mitchell
Power, time, gravity, love. The forces that really kick ass are all invisible.
David Mitchell
Beyond the Indian hamlet, upon a forlorn strand, I happened on a trail of recent footprints.
David Mitchell
