“Little fish risking everything for a piece of godhood...and not knowing heaven from hell, even when they find it.”

“So what I’m getting at is this. Okay, maybe it’s cold in the grave. Maybe you come out of the light and you think, Fuck your mother, this is bad. This is worse than anything I would have guessed. But the trick is to clench your teeth, get a running start and dive.
When I hit that other country, from whose bourne no traveller back-pedals, I’m going to be moving fast. I’m gambling that the first ten seconds or so will be the worst.”
― Dead Men's Boots

“We all stand before the judge at some point, and the way a man dies is no different than how he decides to live life. You just remember that when your time comes.”
