Cornell Woolrich Quotes

Just Inside The Doorway He Puts Down The Bags, Motions Her To Stand By Them A Minute. He Saunters Out Ahead, Carefully Casual. Peers Up One Way, Down The Other. Nothing. The Street's Dead To The World.
Then Suddenly, From Nowhere, Ping! Something Flicks Off The Wall Just Behind Him, Flops At His Feet Like A Dead Bug. He Doesn't Bend Down To Look Closer, He Can Tell What Kind Of A Bug It Is All Right. He's Seen That Kind Of Bug Before, Plenty Of Times. No Flash, No Report, To Show Which Direction It Came From. Silencer, Of Course.
He Hasn't Moved. Fsssh! And A Bee Or Wasp In A Hurry Strokes By His Cheek, Tingles, Draws A Drop Of Slow Blood. Another Pokk! From The Wall, Another Bug Rolling Over. The Insect-world Seems Very Streamlined, Very Self-destructive, Tonight. ("Jane Brown's Body")
