Rage QUOTES

1 " Mr. Grace sounded like a very small child, helpless, hopeless. I had made him fuck himself with his own big tool, like one of those weird experiences you read about in the Penthouse Forum. I had taken off his witch doctor's mask and made him human. But I didn't hold it against him. To err is only human, but it's divine to forgive. I believe that sincerely. "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

2 " Craziness is only a matter of degree, and there are lots of people besides me who have the urge to roll heads. They go to stock-car races and the horror movies and the wrestling matches they have in Portland Expo. Maybe what she said smacked of all those things, but I admired her for saying out loud, all the same--the price of honesty is always high. She had an admirable grasp of the fundamentals. Besides, she was tiny and pretty. "

3 " The deal is this. You be the hero. Come down here. Unarmed. Come inside with your hands on your head. I'll let everybody go. Then I'll blow your fucking head off. Sir. How's that for a deal? You buy it? "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

4 " One of the few things my father says when he's had a few that I agree with is that kids don't have much balls in this generation. Some of them are trying to start the revolution by bombing U.S. government washrooms, but none of them are throwing Molotov cocktails at the Pentagon. "

― Stephen King , Rage

5 " Most kids don't give a hoot in hell for brains; they go a penny a pound, and the kid with the high I.Q. who can't play baseball or at least come in third in the local circle jerk is everybody's fifth wheel. "

― Stephen King , Rage

6 " Lunacy is when you can’t see the seams where they stitched the world together anymore. "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

7 " That was Dad's life, and I was the birdshit on his windshield. "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

8 " Peccato che non avessero niente di più preciso da esporre, come ad esempio un cartello con la scritta : RALLENTARE! PAZZO IN CORSO. "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

9 " This,” I said pleasantly, “is known as getting it on. "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

10 " Herk threw up the mouse, the hamburger he'd eaten for lunch, and some pasty glop that looked like tomato soup. He was just starting to ask his mother what was going on when she threw up. And there, in all that puke, that old dead mouse didn't look bad at all. It sure looked better than the rest of the stuff. "

11 " Sie pflegten mir Angst zu machen, und sie machen mir immer noch Angst, aber jetzt langweilen Sie mich auch noch, und ich habe mich entschlossen, das nicht mehr hinzunehmen "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

12 " You’re on, Ted,” I told him. “Your big chance, boy. Don’t blow it. Folks, this kid is going to dance his balls off before your very eyes. "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

13 " There's a Mr. Hyde for every happy Jekyll face, a dark face on the other side of the mirror. "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

14 " You've got a shitty habit, you know it? I've noticed it on all those TV drive-safely pitches that you do. You breathe in people's ears. You sound like a stallion in heat, Philbrick. That's a shitty habit. You also sound like you're reading off a teleprompter, even when you're not. You ought to take care of stuff like that. You might save a life. "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

15 " Wahnsinn ist, wenn man nicht mehr die Nähte sehen kann, mit denen die Welt zusammengenäht ist. "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

16 " So sind die Dinge manchmal. Wenn alles am schlimmsten ist, dann wirft der Verstand alles in einen Papierkorb und geht für eine Weile nach Florida. Da ist ein Was-zur-Hölle-soll's?-Gefühl in einem, während man da-steht und über die Schulter zu der Brücke zurückblickt, die man soeben niedergebrannt hat. "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

17 " ...we are going to understand all about the difference between people and pieces of paper in a file, and the difference between doing your job and getting jobbed... "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

18 " He was a heavy breather. You could hear him puffing and blowing into the mike up there like some large and sweaty animal. I don't like that, never have. My father is like that on the telephone. A lot of heavy breathing in your ear, so you can almost smell the scotch and Pall Malls on his breath. It always seems unsanitary and somehow homosexual. "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

19 " Wenn man sich für jemanden verantwortlich fühlt, kann es sein, daß man ihn schließlich haßt. "

― Richard Bachman , Rage

20 " Wenn die Intelligenten einen schlechten Charakter haben, so zeigt sich das, und wenn sie keinen schlechten Charakter haben, dann sind sie so leicht auszurechnen wie Quadratwurzeln. "
