Gothic Quotes

“In the modern world, the city begins to pulse with the energy of a dynamic present, while depictions multiply of the countryside as a backwater, a place where things slow and swirl and the Old Ways linger on. Paths move outwards from the village, into the forest and further into the trackless wilderness before returning to the sketchy in-between edgelands. From there, the Gothic travels the world.”
― Roger Luckhurst, Gothic: An Illustrated History
