Death is when the monsters get you.
STEPHEN KING, Salem's Lot
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And when you look long into an abyss, the abyss also looks into you.
FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHE, Beyond Good and Evil
The monsters of the mind are far worse than those that actually exist. Fear, doubt, and hate have hamstrung more people than beasts ever have.
CHRISTOPHER PAOLINI, Brisingr
In a world of monsters, you had to be a ghost to survive.
A human being does not turn another human being over to the monsters. Not for any reason.
LAURELL K. HAMILTON, Guilty Pleasures
Every monster was a man first.
