“You will always be a monster - there is no turning back from it. But what kind of monster you become is entirely up to you.”
“You worry that we're becoming monsters. Merlin, we already were monsters. You didn't make us any worse.”
“Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster... for when you gaze long into the abyss. The abyss gazes also into you.”
“You are a monster.” Kanin’s deep voice droned in my head again, as I forced myself to move, to walk away. “You will always be a monster, there is no turning back from it. But what type of monster you become is entirely up to you.”
“Monsters are bad things, but monsters that do not walk and talk like monsters are the worst.”
