How we cite our quotes: (Panel)

Quote #4

"Gak." (139)

This sad, lonely corpse is one of the chapter's most horrifying images. How much does it remember? Can it think? Does it know it's completely alone and unable to move?

Quote #5

[A sign saying "Welcome to Georgia. Southern Hospitality" with a corpse in front of it.] (148)

This is quite a welcome as Rick rolls into Georgia. He doesn't see another living soul during the entire trip.

Quote #6

"So… you got a name." (183)

Rick is clearly going a little crazy from isolation. He's talking to a horse. This whole episode shows how powerful the need for connection and communication is. People will try to connect with anything that communicates or looks or sounds human. Think Siri, or Wilson in Cast Away.
