“Truth is the worst monster, because it never really goes away.”
― Francesca Zappia, Eliza and Her Monsters

“How can I want something so badly but become so paralyzed every time I think about taking it?”
― Francesca Zappia, Eliza and Her Monsters

“Creating art is a lonely task, which is why we introverts revel in it, but when we have fans looming over us, it becomes loneliness of a different sort. We become cage animals watched by zoo-goers, expected to perform lest the crowd grow bored or angry. It's not always bad. Sometimes we do well, and the cage feels more like a pedestal”
― Francesca Zappia, Eliza and Her Monsters

“I don't want to be the girl who freezes when confronted with new friends, or the outside world, or the smallest shred of intimacy. I don't want to be alone in a room all the time. I don't want to feel alone in a room all the time, even when there are other people around.”
― Francesca Zappia, Eliza and Her Monsters
