1 " Most people carry their demons around with them, buried down deep inside. Writers wrestle their demons to the surface, fling them onto the page, then call them characters. "
― C.K. Webb
2 " Only the weak invite their demons to live with them. Isn't that right? "
― Maria V. Snyder , Poison Study (Study, #1)
3 " Still there are some, braver and more valiant than their peers, who face their demons head on, staring defiantly into the shadows, demanding forgiveness. "
4 " There are casualties in war. Those who don’t make it back to a place of sound hopes and dreams. Some take on their demons alone. They are deceived into fearlessness and trampled by the hooves of their oppressor. Besides intervention, there is little justice for the thousands-upon-thousands hacked to pieces all around us. How dare we try to take life to the next level. Instead of merely protecting ourselves or scrounging up our next meal, we have the audacity to hope for something more—a witness for our lives who will survive alongside us. "
― Christopher Hawke , Unnatural Truth
5 " It was the kind of place where hard drinkers came to wrestle their demons while fallen angels drank alone in dark smoky corners. "
― Ian Tregillis , Something More Than Night
