Quotes by Robert Kirkman

Civilization is a myth. That is the truth this world has taught us. We have not risen above our baser instincts... That is what always has and always will drive us.

Point me in the right direction, and shut the fuck up. Im the one calling the shots now. Fall in line or fall down a fucking well.

I hope youre at peace. I hope you...

Ill always miss you, Lucille. Im sorry I named a fucking baseball bat after you.

To me, the best zombie movies aren’t the splatter fests of gore and violence with goofy characters and tongue in cheek antics. Good zombie movies show us how messed up we are, they make us question our station in society… and our society’s station in the world.

You tell me I have to crush a field of babies to keep breathing? Sure. You say people who rely on me arent going to live unless I turn someones head into a bowl of gravy? Im there. I dont feel bad about it. I dont think about it. It just is what it is. Its survival.

Dont be such a crybaby. The fucking world ended. Everyones mother is dead, you pussy. Besides... were on our way to talk to the people who cut you moms head off... have some motherfucking perspective.

Mother Fuckers. Theyre going to feel pretty stupid when they fin

I came here to get there. Do I have any fucking clue what there is? Hell the fuck no. Im just trying to live in a world of the dead.

Protecting the weak is the whole fucking basis for civilization. If youre not protecting the weak, youre not civilized. Youre fucking animals.

Now get the fuck up off the ground so I can put you in it... like a coffin. Because youll be fucking dead after I kill you, you fucking asshole.

I saw thousands of them. A sea of the dead that roared like an ocean! You would have heard them screaming toward you. It would have taken days to steer them away. Killing them? I dont think killing them would have been possible.

I remember when my aunt died, the thing that pissed me off the most was going to get groceries the next day and seeing all those people who didnt care... didnt understand why I was so upset when I saw her brand of cigarettes behind the counter.

You sick fuck. Tear my pants off, prick. See what I got. Ill knock your fucking teeth out with my swinging dick! Last chance... you force yourself into that woman... and Ill force this knife into your dick hole!

Philip doesnt let go, his eyes glinting with rage. Were gonna survive this thing,and were gonna do it by being bigger monsters than they are! You understand? There aint no philosophy, there aint no grace, there aint no mercy, theres only us and them, and all they wanna do is eat our ass! So were gonna fucking eat them! Were gonna chew em up and spit em out, and were gonna survive this thing or I will blow a hole through this whole fucked up world! You follow me? You FOLLOW ME!
