“Does a man’s existence change in any way when he removes his overcoat? Neither does it change when death removes the overcoat of his body. He’s still the same person. No wiser. No happier. No better off. Exactly the same. “Death is merely continuation at another level.”
― Richard Matheson, What Dreams May Come

“The Shadow is not evil. It is everything You were told to hide in order to belong, anger, desire, grief, neediness, brilliance, queerness, eroticism, boundaries, pleasure, pride.


In short: the parts of You that threatened the story someone else needed You to play.”
― Diana Von Rigg, Dom(me) the Darkness Within: Ritual Shadow Work for the Neurodivergent & Kink-Aligned

“Vengeance incarnate. Wrath's bruised heart. She would bow for no one. Hunt's lightning sang at the sight of that beautiful, brutal face.”
― Sarah J. Maas, House of Earth and Blood

“For everything in life, there’s a counterpart in afterlife. This includes the most beautiful as well as the ugliest of phenomena.”
― Richard Matheson, What Dreams May Come
