“A middle-aged woman lay on the floor in a circle of blood and guts. Her face had been shredded with claws, leaving one eyeball hanging out of the ruins of the socket. The other was gone. Her dress had been shredded, exposing gouged, bloody pendulous breasts. Her stomach had been ripped open by claws, and her guts spread around the room. Her throat was torn out, and a spray of blood lay all around her.”
― John Patrick Kennedy, Princess Dracula

“People to whom nothing has ever happened cannot understand the unimportance of events.”
― T.S. Eliot

“I wish we had the technology to fight God on an equal basis. To beard him in his den. To fight back for all of the injustices heaped on humanity. To allow him to alter his smug arrogance or be blown to hell.”
― Dan Simmons, The Fall of Hyperion

“Mother can beat me all she wants, but I haven’t let her take away my will to somehow survive.”
― Dave Pelzer, A Child Called "It"
