He tried to remember the dream but he could not. All that was left was the feeling of it. He thought perhaps they'd come to warn him.... Cormac McCarthy
Richard did not believe in angels, he never had. He was damned if he was going to start now. Still, it was much easier not to believe in something when it was not actually looking directly at you and saying your name. Neil Gaiman
