Neil Gaiman Quote
Oh, monsters are scared, said Lettie. That’s why they’re monsters. And as for grown-ups . . . She stopped talking, rubbed her freckled nose with a finger. Then, I’m going to tell you something important. Grown-ups don’t look like grown-ups on the inside either. Outside, they’re big and thoughtless and they always know what they’re doing. Inside, they look just like they always have. Like they did when they were your age. The truth is, there aren’t any grown-ups. Not one, in the whole wide world. She thought for a moment. Then she smiled. Except for Granny, of course.
