„Tempo, fammi un ultimo favore. Fermati su questo momento sublime, in maniera che io possa viverlo per sempre.“
— Richard Matheson

L'idea che ha portato alla stesura di The Box è di natura simile: il sacrificio della dignità umana in cambio di un preciso scopo. Ma in questo caso nulla che somigli neppure vagamente a qualcosa di nobile come la pace nel mondo.“
— Richard Matheson

„…They think of suicide as a quick route to oblivion, an escape. Far from it. It merely alters a person from one form to another. Nothing can destroy the spirit. Suicide only precipitates a darker continuation of the same conditions from which escape was sought. A condition under circumstances so much more painful.“
— Richard Matheson, What Dreams May Come
„We've forgotten much. How to struggle, how to rise to dizzy heights and sink to unparalleled depths. We no longer aspire to anything. Even the finer shades of despair are lost to us. We've ceased to be runners. We plod from structure to conveyance to employment and back again. We live within the boundaries that science has determined for us. The measuring stick is short and sweet. The full gamut of life is a brief, shadowy continuum that runs from gray to more gray. The rainbow is bleached. We hardly know how to doubt anymore. (“The Thing”)“
— Richard Matheson, Collected Stories, Vol. 1
„Chris Nielsen: Thank you for every kindness. Thank you for our children. For the first time I saw them. Thank you for being someone I was always proud to be with. For your guts, for your sweetness. For how you always looked, for how I always wanted to touch you. God, you were my life. I apologize for everytime I ever failed you. Especially this one...“
— Richard Matheson, What Dreams May Come
