The dead have highways." Clive Barker

Believe me, when I say; There are no two powers That command the soul. One is God The other is the tide. -Anon From the novel Abarat

A monster lies in wait in me,a stew of wounds and misery.But fiercer still in life and limb,the me that lies in wait in him

Memory, prophecy, and fantasy— The past, the future, and The dreaming moment between— Are all in one country, Living one immortal day. To know that is Wisdom. To use it is the Art.

You just have to trust your own madness.

Horror fiction shows us that the control we believe we have is purely illusory, and that every moment we teeter on chaos and oblivion.

I don't like PG-13 horror movies. I think they're a contradiction in terms.

Telling one lie begets another lie that begets another lie and before you know it that lie has grandkids, great grandkids and keeps growing. It’s like Lay’s Potato Chips, you can’t tell just one!

I listen to a lot of really old western and country music. There's a lot of cool stuff in there... all the heartbreak of the country darkness.

Why should we live halfway up the hill and swathed in the mists, when we might have an unclouded sky and a radiant sun over our heads if we would climb higher and walk in the light of His face?

You might be a redneck if somebody hollers ho-down and your girlfriend hits the floor.

The impression was gaining ground with me that it was a good thing to let the money be my slave and not make myself a slave to money.

My act is very educational. I heard a man leaving the other night saying, 'Well that taught me a lesson.'

Just drop your bucket where you are.

The Word of God will bring you into a wonderful place of rest in faith.
