Ted Bundy quotes:

We serial killers are your sons, we are your husbands, we are everywhere. And there will be more of your children dead tomorrow

Possessing them physically as one would possess a potted plant, a painting, or a Porsche. Owning, as it were, this individual.

Well-meaning, decent people will condemn the behavior of a Ted Bundy, while they're walking past a magazine rack full of the very kinds of things that send young kids down the road to be Ted Bundys.

There lots of other kids playing in streets around this country today who are going to be dead tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day and month, because other young people are reading the kinds of things and seeing the kinds of things that are available in the media today.

Personalized stationary is one of the small but truly necessary luxuries of life.

Since this girl in front of him represented not a person, but again the image, or something desirable, the last thing we would expect him to want to do would be to personalize this person. . . . Chattering and flattering and entertaining, as if seen through a motion picture screen.

Countless millions who have walked this earth before us have gone through this, so this is just an experience we all share.

Guilt? It's this mechanism we use to control people. It's an illusion. It's a kind of social control mechanism -- and it's very unhealthy. It does terrible things to our bodies. And there are much better ways to control our behavior than that rather extraordinary use of guilt.

I didn't know what made people want to be friends. I didn't know what made people attractive to one another. I didn't know what underlay social interactions.

I have known people who radiate vulnerability. Their facial expressions say I am afraid of you. These people invite abuse. By expecting to be hurt, do they subtly encourage it?

I'd like you to give my love to my family and friends.

Murder is not about lust and it's not about violence. It's about possession. When you feel the last breath of life coming out of the woman, you look into her eyes. At the point, it's being God.

Murder is not about lust and it's not about violence. It's about possession.

Sex is only dirty when you do it right.

Sure, I get angry. I get very, very angry and indignant. I don't like being locked up for something I didn't do, and I don't like my liberty taken away, and I don't like being treated like an animal, and I don't like people walking around and ogling me like I'm some sort of weirdo, because I'm not.

Society wants to believe it can identify evil people, or bad or harmful people, but it's not practical. There are no stereotypes.

I just liked to kill, I wanted to kill.

I deserve, certainly, the most extreme punishment society has and society deserves to be protected from me and from others like me, that's for sure.

I do. I can't say that being in the Valley of the Shadow of Death is something I've become all that accustomed to, and that I'm strong and nothing's bothering me. It's no fun. It gets kind of lonely, yet I have to remind myself that every one of us will go through this someday in one way or another.

I don't think anybody doubts whether I've done some bad things. The question is: what, of course, and how and, maybe even most importantly, why?

I don't feel guilty for anything. I feel sorry for people who feel guilt.

I don't wanna die, I'm not gonna lie to you I admit that and I'm not asking for clemency, I'm not asking for forgiveness, I'm not asking for sympathy. I know they're gonna kill me sooner or later. You don't need to worry about that but there's a lot of crimes I can solve if the state can just see fit to make me live two or three years longer, I mean look, I know I'm not like other people, I know I can't feel sympathy for other people but I'm still human.

I find it somewhat absurd to ask for mercy for something I did not do.

I haven't blocked out the past. I wouldn't trade the person I am, or what I've done, or the people I've known, for anything. So I do think about it. And at times it's a rather mellow trip to lay back and remember.

I think I stand as much chance of dying in front of a firing squad or in a gas chamber as you do being killed on a plane flight home. Let's hope you don't.

I want to master life and death.

I've met a lot of men who were motivated to commit violence just like me. And without exception, without question, every one of them was deeply involved in pornography.

Men and women do not posses visions of the future. They are possesed by them.

The fantasy that accompanies and generates the anticipation that precedes the crime is always more stimulating than the immediate aftermath of the crime itself.

There is no protection against the kinds of influences that are loose in a society that tolerates pornography.

They wouldn't be stereotypes necessarily. But they would be reasonable facsimiles to women as a class. A class not of women, per se, but a class that has almost been created through the mythology of women and how they are used as objects.

Try to touch the past. Try to deal with the past. It's not real. It's just a dream.

What's one less person on the face of the earth, anyway?

When you work hard to do something right, you don't want to forget it.

You are going to kill me, and that will protect society from me. But out there are many, many more people who are addicted to pornography, and you are doing nothing about that.

You feel the last bit of breath leaving their body. You're looking into their eyes. A person in that situation is God!

You learn what you need to kill and take care of the details. It's like changing a tire. The first time you're careful. By the thirtieth time, you can't remember where you left the lug wrench.
