1 " One day, you will come to realise that people will always try and wriggle out of the uncomfortable truths, choosing instead to cushion their fragile egos with the lies they want to hear. Well, now I realise, it is our job to make them listen. "
― Rosie Hewlett , Medusa
2 " I also often wonder how different my life would have been if I were born a man. Would Athena have protected me then? Would Poseidon have respected me? I claimed earlier that beauty was my first curse, but perhaps it was actually being born a woman. "
― Rosie Hewlett
3 " I cannot escape my past because it is a part of who I am today. That is something that has taken me a long time to accept. "
4 " I had hurled my anger and hatred at the world, spreading misery in a vain attempt to stifle my own. I should have expected it to be thrown back in my face, shouldn't I? After all, violence only ever breeds more violence. "
5 " In general, I find that most monsters are made, not born. Perhaps you should remember that next time you encounter one. "
6 " I watch, outraged yet not entirely surprised, as the same tragedy echoes throughout generations, leaving an endless trail of broken victims and unscathed perpetrators. "
7 " It is human nature to weave our own thread into each story we tell, adding a little piece of ourselves into the narrative. "
8 " These days I am tired of running from the pieces of myself I cannot' escape. Like broken shards I have tried to brush under the rug, I always know they are still there and that ultimately I will never be fully complete without them. I cannot escape my past because it is a part of who I am today. "
