Clive Barker
“Minds weren't pictures at an exhibition, all numbered, and hung in order of influence, one marked "Cunning," the next, "Impressionable." They were scrawls; they were sprawling splashes of graffiti, unpredictable, unconfinable.”
Clive Barker, Books of Blood, Vol. 1

Brandon Sanderson
“Strength does not make one capable of rule; it makes one capable of service.”
Brandon Sanderson, The Way of Kings

Peter Straub
“...nobody can protect anybody else from vileness. Or from pain. All you can do is not let it break you in half and keep on going until you get to the other side.”
Peter Straub, Ghost Story

Stieg Larsson
“Armageddon was yesterday, today we have a serious problem.”
Stieg Larsson, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

Dan Simmons
“After fifty-five years of dedicating his life and work to the story of ethical systems, Sol Weintraub had come to a single, unshakable conclusion: any allegiance to a deity or concept or universal principal which put obedience above decent behavior toward an innocent human being was evil.”
Dan Simmons, Hyperion
