The kind of stuff I usually read is a bit more on the literary side, like books that I think are influential in the sense that they're doing pulpy subject matter in a refined way. Like 'The Road' by Cormac McCarthy, I loved that book.

More quotes by Isaac Marion
There’s not really such thing as ‘good’ or ‘bad’ people, there’s just like…humanity. And it gets broken sometimes.
Isaac Marion
Here it comes. My inevitable death, ignoring me all those years when I wished for it daily, arriving only after I've decided I want to live forever.
Isaac Marion
Deep under our feet the Earth holds its molten breath, while the bones of countless generations watch us and wait.
Isaac Marion
You should always be taking pictures, if not with a camera then with your mind. Memories you capture on purpose are always more vivid than the ones you pick up by accident.
Isaac Marion
Life only makes any sense if we can see time how God does. Past, present, and future all at once.
Isaac Marion
Everything you see, you might be seeing for the last time.
Isaac Marion
It's a strange feeling, being so utterly surrounded by her. Her life scent is on everything. She's on me and under me and next to me. It's as if the entire room is made out of her.
Isaac Marion
I crush her against me. I want to be part of her. Not just inside her but all around her. I want our rib cages to crack open and our hearts to migrate and merge. I want our cells to braid together like living thread.
Isaac Marion
I sigh inside, so exhausted by these ugly questions, but when did a monster ever deserve its privacy?
Isaac Marion
But it does make me sad that we've forgotten our names. Out of everything, this seems to me the most tragic. I miss my own and I mourn for everyone else's, because I'd like to love them, but I don't know who they are.
Isaac Marion
It was fun, but it's over now. This is how things go.
Isaac Marion
What's the point of trying to fix a world we're so briefly in?
Isaac Marion
Once again the absurdity of my inner thoughts overwhelms me, and I want to crawl out of my skin, escape my ugly, awkward flesh and be a skeleton, naked and anonymous.
Isaac Marion
She is Living and I'm Dead, but I'd like to believe we're both human. Call me an idealist.
Isaac Marion
Every time I go to sleep, I know I may never wake up. How could anyone expect to? You drop your tiny, helpless mind into a bottomless well, crossing your fingers and hoping when you pull it out on its flimsy fishing wire it hasn't been gnawed to bones by nameless beasts below.
Isaac Marion
That's why we have memory. And the opposite of memory— hope. So things that are gone can still matter. So we can built off our pasts and make future.
Isaac Marion
Once you've arrived at the end of the world, it hardly matters which route you took.
Isaac Marion
Sometimes it's a struggle to live in the moment.
Isaac Marion
One mistake, one brief lapse of my new found judgement-that's all it took to unravel everything. What a massive responsibility, being a moral creature.
Isaac Marion
It's not like I'm such a shiny happy person either, you know? I'm a wreck too, I'm just... still alive.
