Quotes by Shaun Hick

Knowledge is too final. Not knowing lets you dream a little.

I hasten to sleep so that I might dreamand colour my mind with a myriad of things.

Then come. Let me send you to see if you have lived your life serving a deity or a dream.

Long ago I found the veil and lifted it. And knowing as I do what is behind, what those behind it get away with, with impunity ... I cannot grow old basking on the bank of some safe-haven, no.

Instead of blaming yourself for something you cannot undo, let it define you.

I am full of mistakes and imperfections and therefore I am real ...

You’re a clever strategist, but not all battles require tricks. Sometimes the simplest way to kill something is to swim up to it and bite it in half.

You’re the prettiest thing I’ve seen fall from the sky today.
