Final Girl Quotes

“To put it in conclusion, sir, final girls are the vessel we keep all our hope in. Bad guys don't just die by themselves, I mean. Sometimes they need help in the form of a furie running at them, her mouth open in scream, her eyes white hot, her heart forever pure.”
― Stephen Graham Jones, My Heart Is a Chainsaw

“But if the Final Girl is an exception to the female rule, she can’t be our avatar. Most of us, by definition, are not exceptional. It’s when we shift out focus to the margins, and all the non-Final, ordinary, disposable girls who are stripped and splayed and stabbed and ripped apart, that the next part of our story becomes clear.”
― Sady Doyle, Dead Blondes and Bad Mothers

“Maybe I'm weaker than I thought. Maybe all there is for me is my semi-safe world of books and blue flowers.”
― Allison Ivy, Inked in Blood and Memory
