L. Joseph Shosty
“The gravedigger knew a fine trick. When the worms looked unhappy he would leave his place in the mausoleum and go up into the sunshine. He would go empty-handed, but when he returned, with him came a most exquisite corpse. The worms would rejoice, and they would feast upon the corpse until they were fat and could feast no more. The young would come with the old to see this trick and glory in it. No worm knew where the gravedigger got his corpses, but they were always succulent and nourishing. They praised the gravedigger’s generosity. -- From "Worms”
L. Joseph Shosty, Swallow the Evil

L. Joseph Shosty
“And you will spend the rest of your life wondering if I have disciples to avenge me. Hire your tasters, Burbesh. Until the Master of the Sleeps comes for you, you’ll never know a taste of anything that has not touched another’s lips first. You’ll never sleep in a bed that has not been first tossed for vipers. You’ll never sit in a chair that has not been tested for poisoned barbs in its cushions. You shall never see a bath drawn for you that you will not at first fear is acid. And you’ll never have another dream where my face is not grinning at you from the shadows.” -- From "Morality for Alchemists and Thieves”
L. Joseph Shosty

“The cold impassive stars didn't bother him so much as the gaps between them did.”
Laird Barron, The Croning

Terry Pratchett
“It was the sort of smile that lies on sandbanks waiting for incautious swimmers.”
Terry Pratchett, Mort

Michael McDowell
“Savage mothers eat their children!”
Michael McDowell, The Elementals
