More quotes by Rick Yancey
The world is a clock winding down.
Rick Yancey
Maybe the last human being on Earth won't die of starvation or exposure or as a meal of wild animals. Maybe the last one to die will be killed by the last one alive.
Rick Yancey
I don't care what the stars say about how small we are. One, even the smallest, weakest, most insignificant one, matters.
Rick Yancey
I stare at her. I've always known that it's impossible to argue with Belinda, not because she's particularly good at it, but because she's so bad at it- that there is no common ground to work from. She simply sees the world she wants to see it and no amount of logic can change her mind.
Rick Yancey
Miss Marks, you see, makes her living by...entertaining young, and not so young, sailors...or any other members of the armed forced, or civilians, who enjoy...being entertained by ladies who...entertain.
Rick Yancey
When I wake up the next morning, there's a Hershey's Kiss sitting on the table beside me.
Rick Yancey
When the moment comes to stop running from your past, to turn around and face the thing you thought you could not face--the moment when your life teeters between giving up and getting up--when that moment comes, and it always comes, if you can't get up and you can't give up either, here's what you do: Crawl.
Rick Yancey
There are those who labor in the darkness, that the rest of us might live in the light.
Rick Yancey
Some things you can never leave behind. They don't belong to the past. They belong to you.
Rick Yancey
Great sci-fi has never shied from tackling the Big Questions, though really great sci-fi never forgets to entertain us along the way. Shock and awe applies to art, as well.
Rick Yancey
You know how sometimes you tell yourself that you have a choice, but really you don't have a choice? Just because there are alternatives doesn't mean they apply to you.
Rick Yancey
I am a shark, Cassie, he says slowly, drawing the words out, as if he might be speaking to me for the last time. Looking into my eyes with tears in his, as if he's seeing me for the last time. A shark who dreamed he was a man.
Rick Yancey
Prayers and promises. The one his sister made to him. The unspoken one I made to my sister. Prayers are promises, too, and these are the days of broken promises.
Rick Yancey
I will teach you to love death. I will empty you of grief and guilt and self-pity and fill you up with hate and cunning and the spirit of vengeance. I will make my final stand here, Benjamin Thomas Parish.
Rick Yancey
It isn't up to me to break his heart that's time's job.
Rick Yancey
A man lies upon the floor, spreads his arms, and transforms himself into a ship of a thousand sails.
Rick Yancey
The doctor frowned upon drinking and often expressed wonderment at men who willingly made imbeciles of themselves.
Rick Yancey
The minute we decide that one person doesn´t matter anymore, they´ve won.
Rick Yancey
You can only call someone crazy if there’s someone else who’s normal. Like good and evil. If everything was good, then nothing would be good.
Rick Yancey
His heart, the war. Her face, the battlefield.
