Quotes by Scott G. Bruce (?)

“Night with her veil of gloom covers and conceals the face of the earth, shrouding from our eyes all that is lovely and fair in the golden sunshine, the beauty and thousand comely forms of Nature, which speak joy to the heart and mind of man.”
― Scott G. Bruce, The Penguin Book of the Undead: Fifteen Hundred Years of Supernatural Encounters

“The modern technologies and rational ways of thinking that supposedly mark our progress over earlier generations now allow us to commit mass murder and replicate infernal landscapes at the touch of a button; in an ironic reversal, we have become the very demons our ancestors trembled to meet when death foreclosed on their lives.”
― Scott G. Bruce, The Penguin Book of Hell
