Abandoned Church at Sunset
"How beautiful are dreams! In dreams the dead may live, even the long dead and the very silent." -Lord Dunsany

Branch in the Old Clocktower
"Be curious about life, and cautious with it!" -Vincent Price

You Who Sought For Magic in Your Youth
"And you who sought for magic in your youth but desire it not in your age, know that there is a blindness of spirit which comes from age, more black than the blindness of eye, making a darkness about you across which nothing may be seen, or felt, or known, or in any way apprehended." -Lord Dunsany

Skies That Now are Dark Were Beaming
"Once, I think I half remember, Ere the grey skies of November Quench’d my youth’s aspiring ember, Liv’d there such a thing as bliss; Skies that now are dark were beaming, Gold and azure, splendid seeming Till I learn’d it all was dreaming— Deadly drowsiness of Dis." - Despair by HP Lovecraft

Red Halls
"All life is only a set of pictures in the brain, among which there is no difference betwixt those born of real things and those born of inward dreamings, and no cause to value the one above the other." -H. P. Lovecraft

The Old Church Graveyard
"I pace upon the battlements and stare On the foundations of a house, or where Tree, like a sooty finger, starts from earth; And send imagination forth Under the day’s declining beam, and call Images and memories From ruin or from ancient trees, For I would ask a question of them all." -Yeats

Wreath of Barbs
"The injection of religion Has a coma-like effect And bodies, sleeping, lay decaying Dreaming of a greener day Grinding, binding, taking away Needles above the prey" -Wumpscut
