Twenty percent? What am I, your waiter? I got you five vampires, not a BLT.

God is the great janitor of the universe. Why things don't work is that we have a janitor in charge, and we keep looking for the landlord.

Besides, do you think you would have come if I’d just popped into your tattoo shop one night around closing and said, ‘Hello, I’m the Prince of Darkness. Think you could help me out with a little war next Tuesday, say, sixish?
Richard Kadrey
I seldom feel trapped by my world. Setting up rules and restrictions is part of the process. It gives your world shape. I always look at these things like haiku: you have to work within certain parameters, but within them, you’re completely free.

Richard Kadrey
The universe is a meat grinder and we're just pork in designer shoes, keeping busy so we can pretend we're not all headed for the sausage factory. Maybe I've been hallucinating this whole time and there is no Heaven and Hell. Instead of having to choose between God and the devil, maybe our only real choice comes down to link or patty?
Richard Kadrey
No wonder Sherlock Holmes did all that coke. Math is hard.
Richard Kadrey
We must always look after our friends, even when they are foolish. Especially when they are foolish.
Richard Kadrey
That's what Glocks are. High-precision killing machines that scream Daddy Issues.
Richard Kadrey
Don't talk. Kill it. That might be the sweetest thing a woman's ever said to me on a first date.
Richard Kadrey
If I learned anything Downtown, it's this: the only real difference between an enemy and a friend is the day of the week.
Richard Kadrey
He wore his fear on his skin for everyone to see.

In this life, no matter what anyone promises you, what allegiances of love or fealty they swear or what gods they pray to, you will never have more than what you have at this moment.
Richard Kadrey
I tap a Malediction out of the box, fire it up, and puff. It tastes like a tire fire in a candy factory next door to a strip club. The best cigarettes ever.
Richard Kadrey
I can deal with fighting in the arena in Hell, but laundry and dishes put the fear of God in me.
