Yog-Sothoth knows the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the key and guardian of the gate. Past, present, future, all are one in Yog-Sothoth.
H. P. Lovecraft
Blue, green, grey, white, or black smooth, ruffled, or mountainous that ocean is not silent.
H. P. Lovecraft
Something like fear chilled me as I sat there in the small hours alone-I say alone, for one who sits by a sleeper is indeed alone perhaps more alone than he can realise.
H. P. Lovecraft
The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear.
H. P. Lovecraft
Humour is but the faint terrestrial echo of the hideous laughter of the blind mad gods that squat leeringly and sardonically in caverns beyond the Milky Way. It is a hollow thing, sweet on the outside, but filled with the pathos of fruitless aspiration.
H. P. Lovecraft
The darkness always teemed with unexplained sound - and yet he sometimes shook with fear lest the noises he heard subside and allow him to hear certain other fainter noises which he suspected were lurking behind them.
H. P. Lovecraft
I have harnessed the shadows that stride from world to world to sow death and madness.
H. P. Lovecraft
With five feeble senses we pretend to comprehend the boundlessly complex cosmos, yet other beings with wider, stronger, or different range of senses might not only see very differently the things we see, but might see and study whole worlds of matter, energy, and life which lie close at hand yet can never be detected with the senses we have.
H. P. Lovecraft
I am Providence, and Providence is myself - together, indissolubly as one, we stand thro' the ages a fixt monument set aeternally in the shadow of Durfee's ice-clad peak!
H. P. Lovecraft
Religion struck me so vague a thing at best, that I could perceive no advantage of any one system over any other.
H. P. Lovecraft
The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown
H. P. Lovecraft
No one ever wrote a story yet without some real emotional drive behind it--and I have not that drive except where violations of the natural order ... defiances and evasions of time, space, and cosmic law ... are concerned.
H. P. Lovecraft
It is the night-black Massachusetts legendry which packs the really macabre kick. Here is material for a really profound study in group-neuroticism for certainly, no one can deny the existence of a profoundly morbid streak in the Puritan imagination.
H. P. Lovecraft
The Old Ones were, the Old Ones are, and the Old Ones shall be. Not in the spaces we know, but between them. They walk serene and primal, undimensioned and to us unseen.
H. P. Lovecraft
Zoologists seem to consider the cerebration of cats and dogs about 50-50 -- but my respect always goes to the cool, sure, impersonal, delicately poised feline who minds his business and never slobbers.
H. P. Lovecraft
In my dreams I found a little of the beauty I had vainly sought in life, and wandered through old gardens and enchanted woods.
H. P. Lovecraft
The phenomenon of dreaming ... helped to build up the notion of an unreal or spiritual world and in general, all the conditions of savage dawn-life so strongly conduced toward a feeling of the supernatural, that we need not wonder at the thoroughness with which man's very hereditary essence has become saturated with religion and superstition.
H. P. Lovecraft
As human beings, our only sensible scale of values is one based on lessening the agony of existence.
H. P. Lovecraft
Men of broader intellect know that there is no sharp distinction betwixt the real and the unreal
H. P. Lovecraft
Toil without song is like a weary journey without an end.
H. P. Lovecraft
