“If you were to be lost in the river, Jonas, your memories would not be lost with you. Memories are forever.”

“A bad black horse steals
Steals into my head
And moves across the landscape
Of my mind, while I sleep.
He does what he likes in there.
Next day I feel
The damage.

In the quiet mist
I watch her go.
It feels like snow.
There's a feeling that I get.
I walk back home
Sad and slow.”
― John Marsden, The Dead of Night

“The world was quickly forgetting us. And there was little news to report.”
― John Marsden, The Dead of Night

“All these words, words like 'evil' and 'vicious', they meant nothing to Nature. Yes, evil was a human invention.”
― John Marsden, Tomorrow, When the War Began
