Christopher Rice Quote: “I think we need to always mimic reality in our fiction. I think that we can stir things up and reveal a truth beneath the surface in that way as well.”

Christopher Rice Quote: “Make a beautiful mess and clean it up later.”

Christopher Rice Quote: “You told me about what you called the light in the darkness. About how life was neither good nor bad, but a combination of both and occasionally good things pop up in the middle of tragedy, but they still don’t make tragedy go away. They can’t protect you. They’re just light. But what you didn’t say is that sometimes, certain people can be a light in the darkness. There are some people in this world who are worth saving when other people decide they shine the wrong kind of light on the wrong.”
Christopher Rice Quote: “The light in the darkness, as Stephen explained it, did not chase away the shadows of fear and regret: It merely illuminated the fears worth fighting. It lit the paths dictated by fate and choice, rather than casting a celestial glow on the way to a better and more perfect world. Although.”

Christopher Rice Quote: “So busy looking for ghosts in the attic, we never think to look in the ground.”

Christopher Rice Quote: “I made the decision that, to be happy and to be content, I needed to live the life of an exclusive homosexual. I don’t mean an elitist homosexual, but I mean someone who is exclusively pursuing partners of the same gender.”
Christopher Rice Quote: “I wondered if I was more addicted to being sad than I was to bourbon or cocaine.”
Christopher Rice Quote: “I think what has been the ultimate challenge for me is being willing to be honest with myself about what works for me in terms of relationships and sexual relations. In that sense, I was pretty traditional and pretty buttoned down.”
Christopher Rice Quote: “Any spot where the earth kisses the clouds is a special place, a place where primal truths reveal themselves to those who’ve acquired the wisdom of solitude.”
Christopher Rice Quote: “When we get back, maybe we can all sit down and have a meal together, and you two can bury the hatchet or something. Or, you know, do what men do when they’ve been bumping chests so much their backs are starting to get sore. Like yoga.”

Christopher Rice Quote: “Dream big or die in your sleep.”
Christopher Rice Quote: “But men like this one, men who will run you off the road because they have cast you in their paranoid fantasies, are far more common.

Christopher Rice Quote: “I think that I am profoundly influenced by writers who have explored loss, and longing, and fear. Those influences have turned me into a thriller writer, essentially.”
Christopher Rice Quote: “You can admit that what happened to you made you stronger without celebrating the people who did those things to you.”
Christopher Rice Quote: “Both study her, their jaws working, as if the five words she just spoke have awakened a predatory energy inside them.”

Christopher Rice Quote: “She leaned her head to one side of the pillow to meet her son’s eyes. “Never give into them,” she whispered. “No matter what they do or how important you feel it is to get their acceptance. Never kill part of yourself for them. Because other people will notice that part is missing before you do.”
