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
I didn't show up here to give your life purpose now that your life's over. That's up to you to figure out.
Rick Yancey
Good God, man, what is that smell? He eyed with disgust the doctor's filthy cloak. Life, answered the doctor.
Rick Yancey
He spreads his fingers over my heart, like he’s holding it, like it belongs to him, the hard-fought-for territory he’s won fair and square.
Rick Yancey
There are things that are too terrible to remember, and there are things that are almost too wonderful to recall.
Rick Yancey
Yes, my dear child, monsters are real. I happen to have one hanging in my basement.
Rick Yancey
Because promises matter. They matter now more than ever.
Rick Yancey
Some things you can never leave behind. They don't belong to the past. They belong to you.
Rick Yancey
Maybe you reach a certain point in evolution where boredom is the greatest threat to your survival. Maybe this isn't a planetary takeover at all, but a game. Like a kid pulling wings off flies.
