Popular Quotes
“Good ideas stay with you until you eventually write the story.”
― Brian Keene
“Jesus Christ-“
“Is Not here right now,” the man in black replied,”and even if he were, he could not save you.”
― Brian Keene, A Gathering of Crows
“Save it fucker. I’m gonna slit you open and gut you like a fish and pull out your insides. I’m going to show you the black stuff inside your belly, and then I’m gonna make you eat it.”
― Brian Keene, The Conqueror Worms

― Brian Keene, The Rising
“… When you died, you were supposed to live on in the memories of others. That’s what I’d always been told. Didn’t matter what you believed, which religion you subscribed to, what god you worshipped. The simple fact was that none of us knew what lay beyond. Immortality and eternal life? The only sure shot at that was the memories of those you left behind – your friends and family…”
― Brian Keene, Dead Sea
“Keep that hate alive in your heart, lad. It’ll warm you when nothing else will.”
― Brian Keene, King of the Bastards
“Levi,” Maria called. “Come back. We’re not finished yet.”
He paused
“What, Maria?”
“You asked me what I believe in? I believed in you.”
He nodded his head sadly. “Yes, you did. And before you met me, you believed in nothing. But that’s the thing with belief, Maria. It’s easy to believe in something when it doesn’t require anything from you. It’s much harder, though, when the object of your belief requires something of you or asks for something you don’t want to give. That’s when real belief occurs.”
― Brian Keene, Ghost Walk
“They want to control humankind through what they call selective breeding. The Nazis started it, but now the nwo are continuing it. See, the only way to control population is to first get it back down to manageable size. They’re culling the herd, same way the game commission does when deer population gets out of control. That’s why we’ve got diseases like cancer and aids. You telling me that we can put a little goddamn skateboard-looking robot on Mars and have it send pictures back, but we can’t find a cure for cancer? There’s a cure. You can bet on that, boys. There’s a goddamn cure. They just won’t release it because cancer helps cut down the population.”
― Brian Keene, A Gathering of Crows
“We’re not going to make it,” I said.
The words caught in my throat, choking me. What was it Leslie had said to me when we were discussing Shannon’s and Antoinetta’s disappearance? ‘You’re beginning to sound like one of the characters in your books, Adam.’ She’d been right. If this were a novel my heroes would have arrived just in the nick of time and saved the day. But real life didn’t work like that. Real life had no happy endings. Despite our best efforts, despite my love for Tara [his wife] and my determination to protect her, and after everything we’d been through at the LeHorn house, fate conspired against us. We were still nine or ten miles from home, and night was almost upon us. By the time we got there it would already be too late. I fought back tears. I had the urge just to lie down in the middle of the road and let the next car run over me.”
― Brian Keene, Dark Hollow
“We’re all scared. Might as well be scared together.”
― Brian Keene, Darkness on the Edge of Town
