I had thoughts to terms of man's own limited dimension. I had presumed of nature, that its existence begins and ends, is man's conception, not nature's. And I felt my body melting, becoming nothing. My fears melted away. And in that place came acceptance. All these vast majestic creations, it had to meant something. And then I mean to something, too. Yes, small than the smallest, I meant something, too. To God, there is no inexistent existence. I still live exist!"

The Incredible Shrinking Man quotes

  • Scott Carey: My prison, almost as far as I could see, a gray friendless area of space and time, and I resolved that as man had dominated the world of the sun, so I would dominate my world.

  • Scott Carey: [after escaping from the spider] In my hunt for food I had become the hunted. This time I survived, but I was no longer alone in my universe. I had an enemy, the most terrifying ever beheld by human eyes.
