More quotes by Rick Yancey
And if humanity is the last war, then I am the battlefield.
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
Some things you can never leave behind. They don't belong to the past. They belong to you.
Rick Yancey
It isn't up to me to break his heart that's time's job.

Rick Yancey

Rick Yancey
The world is a clock winding down.
Rick Yancey
Climb onto my shoulders. I will not let you fall.
Rick Yancey
Please, do not leave me, Will Henry. I would not survive it. You were nearly right. What Mr. Kendall was, I am always on the brink of becoming. And you - I do not pretend to know how or even why - but you pull me back from the precipice. You are the one... You are the one thing that keeps me Human.
Rick Yancey
I had it all wrong, he says. Before I found you, I thought the only way to hold on was to find something to live for. It isn't. To hold on, you have to find something you're willing to die for.
Rick Yancey
You can’t force yourself to trust. So you put all your doubts in a little box and bury it deep and then try to forget where you buried it
Rick Yancey
Dr. Warthrop chopped off my finger with a butcher knife.
Rick Yancey
Why did they come billions of miles just to stare at us? It's rude.
Rick Yancey
