"لست بطلاً في روحي ولن أكون أبدًا، لكني أفضل مما كنت. أو هكذا أُحدّث نفسي؛ وهذا يكفي في الوقت الراهن."

"Everything burns if the flame is hot enough. The world is nothing but a crucible."

"It was not long before I discovered that withdrawing addicts lost their composure in exactly the same manner that careless millionaires lose their money: gradually, then suddenly."
"لم يمضِ وقت طويل حتى اكتشفت أن المدمنين المنسحبين يفقدون اتزانهم بنفس الطريقة التي يفقد بها المليونيرات المهملون أموالهم: شيئًا فشيئًا، ثم فجأة."
Andrew Davidson, The Gargoyle
"That which abides the fire shall become clean. The water of separation shall purify. The Lord is a consuming fire. That which can't abide the fire shall go through water."
"ما يبقى في النار يطهر. ماء الفصل ينقي. الرب نار آكلة. ما لا يستطيع البقاء في النار يمر بالماء."

"With every fragment of rock that fall from me, I can hear the voice of Marianne Engle. I love you. Aishiteru. Ego amo te. Ti amo. Eg elska pig. Ich liebe dich. It is moving across time, coming to me in every language of the world, and it sounds like pure love."
Andrew Davidson, The Gargoyle
"I am more than my scars."

"What is it like to wear another person’s skin?”“I don’t have a good answer for that,” I said. “It hurts.”“Can you remember their stories? Can you feel the love that they felt?"

"My skin will never work like that again, so aware of the other person that I'm unsure where she ends and I begin. Never again. Never again will my skin be a thing that can so perfectly communicate; in losing my skin to the fire, I also lost the opportunity to make it disappear with another person."

"This is the truth: we all desire to conquer the comely one, because it affirms our own worth. Speaking for the men of the world, we want to own the beauty of the woman we're fucking. We want to grasp that beauty, tightly in our greedy little fingers, to well and truly possess it, to make it ours. We want to do this as the woman shines her way through an orgasm. That's perfection. And while I can't speak for women, I imagine that they-whether they admit it or not-want the same thing: to possess the man, to own his rough handsomeness, if only for a few seconds."
Andrew Davidson, The Gargoyle
"There's a gentle sigh which descends like billowing silk upon the soul that accepts its coming death. It's a gentle pocket of air in the turbulence of everyday life... the silk settles around you as if it has been drifting towards the earth forever and has finally found it's target. The flag of defeat has been mercifully dropped and, in this action, the loss is not so bad. Defeat itself is defeated by the embrace of defeat, and death is swallowed up in victory."
Andrew Davidson, The Gargoyle
"…She kissed me on my thin lips and all my words were pushed back into my mouth. “I don’t want to die,” she whispered, “but I need to lose the shackles of this multitude of hearts."

"There is no logical reason to believe in God. There are emotional reasons, certainly, but I cannot have faith that nothing is something simply because it would be reassuring. I can no more believe in God than I can believe an invisible monkey lives in my ass; however, I would believe in both if they could be scientifically proven."
Andrew Davidson, The Gargoyle
"Heaven is an idea constructed by man to help him cope with the fact that life on earth is both brutally short and, paradoxically, far too long."
