Sarah turned her narrow-eyed gaze on him, making me glad once more that Antimony's comic books got it wrong, and telepaths can't actually kill you with their brains. Give you a whopping headache and earworm you with annoying jingles, yes; kill you, no. (Although sometimes, when she's managed to stick "The Happy Banana Song" in my head for a week, I sort of wish she could kill people with her brain. It would be kinder.)

You want to stay alive in a zombie swarm? You go alone or in a small group, where everyone is of similar physical condition and weapons training. You never stop, you never hesitate, and you never show any mercy for the people that would slow you down.That is what the military says we should do, and if I ever meet anybody who listens to that particular set of commands, I may shoot them myself just to improve the gene pool. When you can help people stay alive, you help them. We're all we've got.

Madness is surprisingly freeing.

Think about that for a moment. They died for you. Now take a good look at the life you're living and tell me: Did they do the right thing?

Nothing is impossible to kill. It's just that sometimes after you kill something you have to keep shooting it until it stops moving

That’s the trouble with being scared all the time. Eventually, people just go numb.

No one wants to set out to be a hero, and discover that they've been a villain all along.
