More quotes by Rick Yancey
What boy my age didn’t dream of fleeing the well-tended lawn and lamp-lit street for the untamed wilderness, where grand adventure awaited on the other side of the horizon, where the stars burned undimmed in the velvet sky above his head and the virgin ground lay untrodden beneath his feet?

Rick Yancey

Rick Yancey
There's the bullshit you know that you know the bullshit you don't know and know you don't know and the bullshit you just think you know but really don't.
Rick Yancey
There are those who labor in the darkness, that the rest of us might live in the light.
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
Some things you can never leave behind. They don't belong to the past. They belong to you.
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 don't have to promise. You just do.
Rick Yancey
There are times when fear is not our enemy. There are times when fear is our truest, sometimes only, friend.
Rick Yancey
It isn't up to me to break his heart that's time's job.
Rick Yancey
In every creepy movie ever made, the barn is the prime nesting ground for the things you don't know you're looking for and always regret finding.
Rick Yancey
It was the price of survival. The cost of his people's last, desperate gamble: To rid his new home of humanity, he had to become human. And being human, he had to overcome his humanity.
