― W.C. Fields

“You know what the fellow said â€� in Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace â€� and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.”
― Graham Greene, The Third Man

“Music makes one feel so romantic - at least it always gets on one's nerves - which is the same thing nowadays.”

― Rachel Carson, The Sea Around Us

“Only sick music makes money today.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

“Over the course of my life I've been to lots of places. Shadowed places where things have gone wrong. Sinister places where things still are. I always hate the sunlit towns, full of newly built developments with double-car garages in shades of pale eggshell, surrounded by green lawns and dotted with laughing children. Those towns aren't any less haunted than the others. They're just better liars.”
― Kendare Blake, Anna Dressed in Blood

“The sinister, the terrible never deceive: the state in which they leave us is always one of enlightenment. And only this condition of vicious insight allows us a full grasp of the world, all things considered, just as a frigid melancholy grants us full possession of ourselves. We may hide from horror only in the heart of horror. (“The Medusaâ€�)”
― Thomas Ligotti

“To disagree with three-fourths of the British public is one of the first requisites of sanity.”
― Oscar Wilde

― William Shakespeare, Hamlet

“So what?�
“I pride myself in being an honest man. That’s what!”
― Cricket Rohman, Wanted: An Honest Man

“A hush, a silence accompanied this dusting of snow until an odd whistling sound broke through the numbness, coming closer, growing louder. What was that?”
― Cricket Rohman, Wanted: An Honest Man

“Life would be a great deal easier if dead things had the decency to remain dead.”
― Doug MacLeod

“Life was about making sense out of the insensible.  A ball of fire out of a clear blue sky? Must’ve been a meteorite, maybe debris from an airplane. Random flashes of light and color at night? A transformer blew up, you must’ve been dreaming, you’re talking crazy, quiet down, take your meds.”
― Edward Williams

“If you have any doubts that we live in a society controlled by men, try reading down the index of contributors to a volume of quotations, looking for women's names.”

“A cadaverousness of complexion; an eye large, liquid and very luminous...finely molded chin, speaking, in its want of prominence, of a want of moral energy.”
― Edgar Allan Poe, The Fall of the House of Usher

“When she opened her eyes they were confronted by a musical box against the opposite wall - one of those early Bavarian toys where mechanical figures perform to the tune.

'How odd,' she thought. The little stage showed a group of fiddlers, two couples in costumes like those of the ball she had just quitted, and in a doorway at the side, a gypsy or beggar man.

Very faintly the distant waltz came to her ears, but no footsteps ringing in the abandoned halls.

With her hand pressed to her unsteady heart, acting under a sudden compulsion, she pushed down the lever. Delicate plucked music started up; the fiddlers sawed with their clumsy arms in time to an ethereal waltz. The couples moved jerkily out and each raised an arm to clasp its partner. To various clicks and rumbles from under the floor they began to revolve with each other and to orbit round the room. Their movements were sinister because of being both reluctant and predestined. Here they were and this is was what they must do. ("Many Coloured Glass")”
― Lucy M. Boston, Ghost Stories

“All dreams are sinister.”
― Iris Murdoch, The Message to the Planet

“This was the reason for the spiritual attacks Lilac had experienced throughout her life, and she instinctually knew she would continue to be a target for the sinister energy forces that had yet to fulfill their destructive mission.”
― Lali A. Love, Heart of a Warrior Angel

“Sympathy? Not for me. No mercy for a criminal freak in Las Vegas. This place is like the Army: the shark ethic prevails - eat the wounded. In a closed society where everybody's guilty, the only crime is getting caught. In a world of thieves, the only final sin is stupidity.”
― Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: A Savage Journey to the Heart of the American Dream

“My golf swing is like a James Cagney smile. It curves with sincerity, but it's also slightly sinister.”
― Jarod Kintz, To be good at golf you must go full koala bear

“For Ben, this all had a sinister feeling, the feeling of a darker time about to begin.”
― Sandra Newman, The Heavens

“She had seen this monster too many times before; however, there was something especially sinister lurking behind the coldness of his exterior. Dragan had lost all his humanity as he allowed the evil running through his bloodline to reveal its putrid face, spewing hatred at his own flesh and blood.”
― Lali A. Love, Heart of a Warrior Angel

“I’ve never had a violent bone in my body. Devious, sure. But sinister, never. I’ve always been the calm one; the rational one.”

ever-present in the dark.”

― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

“There was a town all made of sticks,
Which new men came and changed to bricks.
They tore the green grass from the ground,
Drowned out the silence with their sound.
They choked the air, destroyed the streams,
Which woke the forest from its dreams.
With vengeful heart, its blood did boil,
It pulled them down into the soil.”
― Sim Alec Sansford, Welcome to Denver Falls

“Is that your type? Sinister-looking? That’s not exactly what I envisioned when you said your ex was a poet.”

― Sino Melo
