Why is he scared of the dark?" I meant the words for a joke, but Shade nodded seriously. "Like all monsters. Because it reminds him of what he truly is".

About This Quote

The use of the word monsters in this quote is quite appropriate. It is important to realize that when we hide our true selves from the world, we become shadows of who we truly are; even when we hide it from ourselves. When we hide our true selves from others, we become monsters in their eyes. We may be compassionate and caring people when we are alone, but when we put on a mask and pretend to be something that we are not, we become monsters.

I think it is safe to say that we all have monsters inside of us and that it is only by facing and dealing with these monsters that we can move forward. So many people write well crafted lines and phrases but never put them together correctly. Sometimes writing a line well is enough but sometimes it’s nice to have some examples to follow so you can see what works and what doesn’t. Luckily for you, I saved my favorite lines for this post so you can use them as examples when you need them.
