Beyond the shadow you settled for, theres a miracle illuminated. — Alan Wake

"I have something important to tell you. It goes like this; For he did not know, that beyond the lake he called home, there lied a deeper, and darker ocean green. Where waves are both wilder and more serene. To its ports Ive been, to its ports Ive been."

"Its great that you first make yourself an imaginary friend, and then you cant even get along with that guy. People skills, Al! Youre a master!"

"I have several lawyers on speed dial just because I never know when youll get in trouble again! You know what kind of people need that? Gangsters and assholes! And youre NOT a gangster, because they make money all the time!"

"Al, this may be the most awesome moment of our entire lives!"

"I entered your dream to teach you. The darkness is dangerous. It’s sleeping now. When it feels you coming, it will wake up. There’s no time, I can only show you the most important thing. The hitchhiker had been taken over by the Dark Presence. You can’t hurt him now. The darkness protects him from all harm. Only light can drive the darkness away and make him vulnerable again."

"I’ve always had a vivid imagination, but this dream unsettled me. It was wild and dark and weird, even by my standards. So yes - it began with a dream. Following a typical nightmare pattern, I was late, desperately trying to reach my destination – a lighthouse – for some urgent reason I couldn’t remember. I’d been driving too fast down a coastal road to get there. ... I’d seen the hitchhiker too late. ... He was dead. I was convinced they’d put me in jail, and I would never see Alice again. ... Suddenly, his body was gone."
