"If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking." 
― Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood


"But these weren't the kind of monsters that had tentacles and rotting skin, the kind a seven-year-old might be able to wrap his mind around--they were monsters with human faces, in crisp uniforms, marching in lockstep, so banal you don't recognize them for what they are until it's too late." 
― Ransom Riggs, Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children
