“I do have friends. Maybe they live hundreds of miles away from me, and maybe I can only talk to them through a screen, but they're still my friends. They don't just hold Monstrous Sea together. They hold me together.
Max and Emmy are the reason any of this exists.”
― Francesca Zappia, Eliza and Her Monsters

“Hör zu, ich bin der Freak. Ich bin der Abartige. Ich bin der Randalierer. Ich bin ständig in Prügeleien verwickelt. Ich lasse alle im Stich. Egal, was du tust, mach Finch bloß nicht wütend. Ach, fängt das schon wieder an, eine seiner Launen. Der launische Finch. Der wütende Finch. Der unberechenbare Finch. Der verrückte Finch. Aber ich bin keine Ansammlung von Symptomen. Kein Opfer von verkorksten Genen. Ich bin kein Problem. Keine Diagnose. Keine Krankheit. Nichts, was gerettet werden müsste. Ich bin ein Mensch.”
― Jennifer Niven, All the Bright Places

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

“The struggles they have to go through, and when you really love them, how much they affect you. When the characters are good, they make you care about everything else. That’s why I draw them. It probably sounds dumb, but they’re like real people to me. And this will probably sound worse, but sometimes I like them better than real people. I can empathize with characters. Real people are harder.”
