sense-of-humor kipling reconstructing
Kipling: Where's your sense of humor? Rebis: We're working on reconstructing it...
impossible nothing-is-impossible
Only nothing is impossible.
lying abandon
Abandon the 'I', because it's a lie.
clever thinking guy
I couldn't think of one clever way to stop this guy, so I just trusted to mindless violence.
distance stupid night
It's stupid, I know, but I care. All the things that meant so much when we were young. Under the blankets late at night, listening to long-distance radio. All those things lost now or broken. Can you remember? Can you remember that feeling? Perhaps I ought to go to a doctor.
real block writing
I think the only way you can get something out is to invest some real emotion into it, which means you're already writing about what's going to happen to you, whether you know it or not. That's why I'm always surprised when people talk about writer's block. Because to me, it can't be stopped.
children reality doctors
We're the new power, come to replace the old. Cameras in the head, children with microchips, spin doctors rewriting reality as it happens.

He read me extracts from a medical journal describing the progress of a staphylococcus aureus infection. And then he pleasured me with a potato.

Sometimes it’s only madness that makes us what we are.
morning dark men
I loved IRON MAN: Robert Downey Jr. has been and probably will be my favourite actor for a long time…but IRON MAN, THE INCREDIBLE HULK, SUPERMAN RETURNS and all the others feel a little like Saturday morning cartoons next to the carbon black glory that is 'The Dark Knight.' Trust me, *this* is the future of this sort of thing.
terrorism
From now on, I'm opting for ontological terrorism.
light shadow firsts
The first light had cast the first shadow.
people way ends
And that's why people read comics, to get away from the way life works, which is quite cruel and unheroic and ends in death.
