Rick Yancey
There are those who labor in the darkness, that the rest of us might live in the light.
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.
Rick Yancey
A man lies upon the floor, spreads his arms, and transforms himself into a ship of a thousand sails.
Rick Yancey
Why did they come billions of miles just to stare at us? It's rude.
Rick Yancey
Because promises matter. They matter now more than ever.
Rick Yancey
Some things you don't have to promise. You just do.
Rick Yancey
In case you're an alien and you're reading this: BITE ME.
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
Perhaps God waits for us to be empty, so he may fill us with himself.
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
