Bob Bletcher : What do you see?
Frank Black : I see what the killer sees.
Bob Bletcher : What, like a psychic?
Frank Black : No. I put myself in his head. I become the thing we fear the most.
Bob Bletcher : How?
Frank Black : I become capability. I become the horror. What we know we can become only in our heart of darkness. It's my gift. It's my curse.

Frank Black : We live in a world where too many people won't go far enough... won't do what they know is right... what they believe.

Frank Black : It is prophesied that when the end comes, it will come in darkness: a catastrophe all foresaw but few believed. Most of us will battle too late against the chaos, but not the few, the radical few, who obey no discipline. Unencumbered by conscience, they prepare ruthlessly pursuing their own preservation. If they survive, the rest of us perish.
