“After being hurt by the world so much,
they began to see the demons within humans.”
“The world, after all, was still a place of bottomless horror.”
“The thought of dying has never bothered me,
but getting hurt, losing blood, becoming crippled and the like—no thanks.”
“There are some people whose dread of human beings is so morbid
that they reach a point where they yearn to see with their own eyes monsters of ever more horrible shapes.”
