Book cover for Mirage Men: A Journey in Disinformation, Paranoia and UFOs
To paraphrase one ufological commentator, UFO researchers knew everything about UFOs except what they are, why they are here, where they come from and who’s steering them.

“I spend my time living close to the animals. I think they have more to teach alive.”
Brian Catling, The Cloven

Roberto Bolaño
“Still, American television is full of smiles and more and more perfect-looking teeth. Do these people want us to trust them? No. Do they want us to think they're good people? No again. The truth is they don't want anything from us. They just want to show us their teeth, their smiles, and admiration is all they want in return. Admiration. They want us to look at them, that's all. Their perfect teeth, their perfect bodies, their perfect manners, as if they were constantly breaking away from the sun and they were little pieces of fire, little pieces of blazing hell, here on this planet simply to be worshipped.”
Roberto Bolaño, 2666

Thomas Ligotti
“Pausing for a moment, as I routinely do when crossing one of these bridges, I gazed not down into the dark waters of the canal, but upwards into the night sky. It was those stars, I knew that now. Certain of them had been promised specific parts of my body. In the darkest hours of the night, when one is unusually sensitive to such things, I could—and still can, just barely—feel the force of these stars tugging away at various points, eager for the moment of my death when each of them might carry off that part of me which is theirs by right. Of course a child would misinterpret this experience. And how often I have found that every superstition has its basis in truth.”
Thomas Ligotti, Songs of a Dead Dreamer and Grimscribe

J.G. Ballard
“Deserts possess a particular magic, since they have exhausted their own futures, and are thus free of time. Anything erected there, a city, a pyramid, a motel, stands outside time. It's no coincidence that religious leaders emerge from the desert. Modern shopping malls have much the same function. A future Rimbaud, Van Gogh or Adolf Hitler will emerge from their timeless wastes.”
J.G. Ballard, The Atrocity Exhibition

Cormac McCarthy
“When it stops, you'll know you've heard it all your life.”
Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian, or, the Evening Redness in the West
