"...there's no such thing as a happy ending. The songs, books, and movies with "happy endings" al stop at teh moment of triumph....There are, however, good stopping places."

-Shaun Hamill, A Cosmology of Monsters

"Living with a family wounded by a loss you can't remember is like sitting behind a tall person at a movie theater. The people around you are laughing, crying, reacting to something, but you have no idea what."

-Shaun Hamill, A Cosmology of Monsters

"I don't reject the choices I've made, or the cost. It's not so surprising, I guess. My monster suit always fit better than my regular skin. I was never a guardian, or a hero, but a creator and harvester of fear."

-Shaun Hamill, A Cosmology of Monsters

"...he has so much he wants to tell the boy, but most important, maybe, is this: life makes monsters of everyone, but it's always possible to come back. Pain and death are real, but so are love, and family, and forgiveness."
