Quotes by Shaun Hamill (?)

“...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.”
― Shaun Hamill, A Cosmology of Monsters

tags: forgiveness, monster, pain

“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

tags: loss-of-family, wound
