“Have you met Henry?” Alex says. “How am I supposed to do that? He has the personality of a cabbage.”
“Contrary to popular belief, possession doesn’t mean that a demon enters a person’s body and takes over their soul. The person’s free will is never removed, only severely compromised. In possession, a person is so physically, emotionally, mentally,”

“If I am right about them, it is unlikely that there will ever be the kind of open contact between our two species that seems so logical and useful to us. Even a well-intentioned human being would pose a threat, in that his accidentally taking an action they had not anticipated might cause them literally to lose track of him right in the middle of one of their own craft.”

“Can we help you stop screaming? Can we help you stop screaming?’ “‘You could let me smell you.’ She puts her cheek up by my face. They are here. You have to understand that. They are here. ‘I’m not going to let you do an operation.’ “‘We won’t hurt you.’ “‘I’m not gonna let you do an operation on me. You have absolutely no right.’ “‘We do have a right.”

“The act of exorcism implies a “driving out” of the demon, but it’s really more like placing a demon under oath. In some cases, it may be more than one demon inhabiting a person. The word “exorcism” comes from the Greek ek and the verb horkizo, which means “I cause [someone] to swear” and refers to “putting the spirit or demon to oath.” It’s more easily explained as invoking a higher authority to bind the entity so it can be caused to act contrary to its own will.”
