Natalie Haynes
“And the monster? Who is she? She is what happens when someone cannot be saved.”
Natalie Haynes, Stone Blind

Jessie Burton
“The Medusa. What did he mean, the Medusa? My name was Medusa, and I was a girl. Perseus had made me sound like a mythical beast. I didn't want to be a myth. I wanted to be me.”
Jessie Burton, Medusa

Jessie Burton
“I'd never known a change that wasn't monstrous.”
Jessie Burton, Medusa

Natalie Haynes
“Why would anyone love a monster?' asked Perseus.
'Who are you to decide who is worthy of love?' said Hermes.
'I mean, I wasn't...'
'And who are you to decide who is a monster?' added the messenger god.”
Natalie Haynes, Stone Blind: Medusa's Story

Natalie Haynes
“I’m wondering if you still think of her as a monster. I suppose it depends on what you think that word means. Monsters are, what? Ugly? Terrifying? Gorgons are both these things, certainly, although Medusa wasn’t always. Can a monster be beautiful if it is still terrifying? Perhaps it depends on how you experience fear and judge beauty.”
Natalie Haynes, Stone Blind
