From now on it is not dying we must fear, but living. ~ Arundhati Roy
Existential Horror quotes by Arundhati Roy
I also employed the world-famous Hemingway Defense. Although never clearly articulated (it would not be manly to do so), the Hemingway Defense goes something like this: as a writer, I am a very sensitive fellow, but I am also a man, and real men don't give in to their sensitivities. Only sissy-men do that. Therefore I drink. How else can I face the existential horror of it all and continue to work? ~ Stephen King
Existential Horror quotes by Stephen King
It is impossible to describe what is necessary, to those who do not know what horror means. You must make a friend of horror. ~ Col. Walter E. Kurtz
Existential Horror quotes by Col. Walter E. Kurtz
I snipped the cherries but left the banana." She gave him a knowing look.
"God," said Sir Sun.
"No, not God. Me. I did it." She pointed at herself. ~ Mav Skye
Existential Horror quotes by Mav Skye
The ultimate horror movie for a really un-illuminated being is an enlightened person. They are scared of others seeing what they are all about and what they really do. They are scared of truth. ~ Frederick Lenz
Existential Horror quotes by Frederick Lenz
How secure is a forty-year-old state? I remember the garrison towns of the Punjab plains, the fenced-off lands, the young soldiers, and I have my answer. To a republic, forty is infancy. And this is its horror, as it carves itself from ancient land, ancient water. ~ Uzma Aslam Khan
Existential Horror quotes by Uzma Aslam Khan
The horror of Gandhi's murder lies not in the political motives behind it or in its consequences for Indian policy or for the future of non-violence; the horror lies simply in the fact that any man could look into the face of this extraordinary person and deliberately pull a trigger. ~ Mary McCarthy
Existential Horror quotes by Mary McCarthy
Here's what you need to know: some cliches are true, and war is definitely hell. It's being afraid all the time, and when you're not afraid it's because you're pumped full of adrenaline you could literally burst. It's watching people who you love- really profoundly love- get blown to pieces right next to you. It's seeing a leg lying in the ditch and picking it up to put it in a bag because no man- or part of a man, your friend- can be left behind. It's the dark night of the soul. There's no front line over there. The war is all around them, every day, everywhere they go. Some handle it better than others. We don't know why, but we do know this: the human mind can't safely or healthily process that kind of carnage and uncertainty and horror. It just can't. No one comes back from war the same. ~ Kristin Hannah
Existential Horror quotes by Kristin Hannah
Read my book and you shall know thee ~ Oscar Sanders
Existential Horror quotes by Oscar Sanders
Horror movies scare me. I don't really watch them. I'm not a big horror genre fan. I like certain classic horror - like 'Alien', 'Jaws', 'The Exorcist', stuff like that. ~ Katharine Isabelle
Existential Horror quotes by Katharine Isabelle
Any time a new horror film comes out that looks appealing, I'm always excited to go see it. ~ Alex Breckenridge
Existential Horror quotes by Alex Breckenridge
There are certain rules one must abide by in order to succesfully survive a horror movie. ~ Jamie Kennedy
Existential Horror quotes by Jamie Kennedy
The dream reveals the reality which conception lags behind. That is the horror of life-the terror of art. ~ Franz Kafka
Existential Horror quotes by Franz Kafka
These peoples probably feared death even more than we do. Our civilisation presents us with a marvellous mental machinery designed to help us forget, for most of our lives, that one day we too will die. In time we manage to push death out of our consciousness, just as we have done with the existence of God. That's what civilisation does. But for these archaic peoples nothing was more immediately apparent than death and the dead, I mean actual dead people, whose mysterious para-existence, fate, and vengeful fury constantly preoccupied them. They had a tremendous horror of death and the dead. But then of course in their minds everything was more ambiguous than it is for us. Opposites sat much closer. The fear of death and the desire for death were intimately juxtaposed in their minds, and the fear was often a form of desire, the desire a form of fear. ~ Antal Szerb
Existential Horror quotes by Antal Szerb
...I've never understood the logic that says a work doesn't need to be judged on the quality of its writing or characters simply because its genre. On the other hand, I've also never understood the logic of excusing a work from the need to tell a story worth telling about people worth knowing simply because the author writes pretty language or has some insights to offer. ~ Glen Hirshberg
Existential Horror quotes by Glen Hirshberg
Dark, dark! The horror of darkness, like a shroud, wraps me and bears me on through mist and cloud. ~ Sophocles
Existential Horror quotes by Sophocles
I sleep with the lights on now. Not because I'm afraid of the dark, but because I like to keep the night as far away as I can. ~ Keith Kekic
Existential Horror quotes by Keith Kekic
Sofya now understood the difference between life and existence: her life had come to an end, but her existence could drag on indefinitely. And however wretched and miserable this existence was, the thought of violent death still filled her with horror. ~ Vasily Grossman
Existential Horror quotes by Vasily Grossman
My imagination completely controls me, and forever feeds the fire that burns with dark red light in my heart by bringing me the best dreams. I've always had a wild imagination, a big heart and a tortured soul so I feel that dark fantasy, love and horror are in my blood. ~ Kim Elizabeth
Existential Horror quotes by Kim Elizabeth
I have a hard time with extreme imagery. Like I can't watch horror movies or anything like that. ~ Panda Bear
Existential Horror quotes by Panda Bear
And in the horror of his realization over Simone was the knowledge that he'd never really loved Satara. He'd wanted to know love so badly that he'd contorted the concept of it to fit a relationship that it had no part in. This time love had come up behind him and clubbed him on the head when he hadn't been expecting it. ~ Sherrilyn Kenyon
Existential Horror quotes by Sherrilyn Kenyon
One of the things I wanted to do with my own books was bridge the gap between 'Goosebumps' and adult horror. ~ Darren Shan
Existential Horror quotes by Darren Shan
All of us have our individual curses, something that we are uncomfortable with and something that we have to deal with, like me making horror films, perhaps. ~ Wes Craven
Existential Horror quotes by Wes Craven
When you're watching an action movie, you experience an action movie more outside of the aquarium, you're out of the aquarium looking in at all the swimming fish that are in there. Whereas horror films and thrillers are designed to put the audience into that box, into that aquarium. ~ James Wan
Existential Horror quotes by James Wan
For to be afraid of oneself is the last horror. But, ~ C.S. Lewis
Existential Horror quotes by C.S. Lewis
Every year I manage to live on this earth I collect more questions than answers. ~ Fatimah Asghar
Existential Horror quotes by Fatimah Asghar
He went into the bathroom, set his Coleman lamp on the sink so that it illuminated the mirror, and for the next fifteen minutes he practiced smiling. He was getting very good at it. ~ Stephen King
Existential Horror quotes by Stephen King
He lives down in a ribcage in the dry leaves of a heart. ~ Thomas Harris
Existential Horror quotes by Thomas Harris
Yes, people pull the trigger - but guns are the instrument of death. Gun control is necessary, and delay means more death and horror. ~ Eliot Spitzer
Existential Horror quotes by Eliot Spitzer
Horror is a curiousity, it's used we to go over on real horror it just prepare us for the hard battles. To laugh at somebody's harm... there is even and scientific explanation. ~ Deyth Banger
Existential Horror quotes by Deyth Banger
Eternity… It has nothing to do with life, I thought; it is the contrary to all life. It is something limitless, endless, a realm of death which the living must look into with horror. Was it here that I was to dwell? ~ Par Lagerkvist
Existential Horror quotes by Par Lagerkvist
The Devil's minions worked his treacherous plot through the hearts of men, possessing them, ruling them. These hounds of hell ran wild these days through their human hosts, working greater and greater abominations. ~ Eric J. Martindale
Existential Horror quotes by Eric J. Martindale
No one can ever heap enough insults upon me to suit my taste. I think we all really thrive on hostility, because it's the most intense kind of massage the ego can undergo. Other people's indifference is the only horror. ~ Paul Bowles
Existential Horror quotes by Paul Bowles
There were monsters abroad, there was no denying it - but what of the thousands of people in Thebes and in the rest of Egypt who had not robbed tombs?
The tally of those who had not bowed to greed far outweighed that of those who had. It was easy to forget that fact amid the horror of the acts of the guilty. Wenatef had lost sight it for a time, but now it was as though he were surrounded by a great, silent multitude: the honorable and faithful ones who had not done wrong. ~ Diana Wilder
Existential Horror quotes by Diana Wilder
Living in Hell kept him aware of the possibility of Heaven, and he'd never felt more alive. ~ Clive Barker
Existential Horror quotes by Clive Barker
Most people have friends, but no money. I have the opposite. I don't have a chance to talk to my real friends, the ones I've had since I was 5 years old. Sometimes I wish I could bring Czechoslovakia to America. Then I would be the happiest guy in the world. ~ Jaromir Jagr
Existential Horror quotes by Jaromir Jagr
Beside himself with shame and despair, the utterly ruined though perfectly just Mr. Golyadkin dashed headlong away, wherever fate might lead him; but with every step he took, with every thud of his foot on the granite of the pavement, there leapt up as though out of the earth a Mr. Golyadkin precisely the same, perfectly alike, and of a revolting depravity of heart. And all these precisely similar Golyadkins set to running after one another as soon as they appeared, and stretched in a long chain like a file of geese, hobbling after the real Mr. Golyadkin, so there was nowhere to escape from these duplicates - so that Mr. Golyadkin, who was in every way deserving of compassion, was breathless with terror; so that at last a terrible multitude of duplicates had sprung into being; so that the whole town was obstructed at last by duplicate Golyadkins, and the police officer, seeing such a breach of decorum, was obliged to seize all these duplicates by the collar and to put them into the watch-house, which happened to be beside him . . . Numb and chill with horror, our hero woke up, and numb and chill with horror felt that his waking state was hardly more cheerful . . . It was oppressive and harrowing . . . He was overcome by such anguish that it seemed as though some one were gnawing at his heart. ~ Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Existential Horror quotes by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Bring the two aliens up here under surveillance." With a microsecond pause, and a finely calculated micro-modulation of pitch and timbre - nothing you could actually take offense at - Marvin managed to convey his utter contempt and horror of all things human. "Just that?" he said. ~ Douglas Adams
Existential Horror quotes by Douglas Adams
I'm an enormous admirer of Christopher Lee. He's somebody, along with Vincent Price, who I celebrate, and I wanted my movies to show that celebration and that honoring of these great film stars that were unafraid to go into horror and Grand Guignol and the macabre. ~ Nicolas Cage
Existential Horror quotes by Nicolas Cage
