Richard Matheson Quotes About Desire

Quotes about: Desire

  Richard Matheson

  Beautiful, Dog, Strong

• (After death.) So few people who come across, possess awareness of any kind. All they bring along with them are worthless values. All they desire is continuation of what they had in life no matter how misguided or degraded. . . Will those people ever progress, even with our help?

  Richard Matheson

  People, Progress, Desire

  Richard Matheson (2007). “What Dreams May Come: A Novel”, p.145, Tor Books

I lived them all—while, at the same time, standing to the side, a witness to their, often, intimate squalor. A witness cursed with total objectivity.

  Richard Matheson

  Real, Objectivity, Blood
