The Eater of Darkness Quotes

“He had all the pleasure of going to be happy.”
― Robert M. Coates, The Eater of Darkness

“Alive or dead," he told himself, "I am just so much manure. One hundred and sixty-five pounds of it, belong by right to the nearest field of corn. Take me out among the hills and lay me down there, a willing hostage from mankind, a tribute to the silent way, the august overlordship of the Vegetable Kingdom.”
― Robert M. Coates, The Eater of Darkness
