"We're all monsters," said Daisy with enthusiasm. "It's the Age of Monsters."

"Einstein's Monsters," by the way, refers to nuclear weapons, but also to ourselves. We are Einstein's monsters, not fully human, not for now.
Martin Amis
"We need not go back through the cavern of the monsters," she said. "There is a way to reach the unseen road from here."
Henry Kuttner
"There's a way outside. We're — we've got to find out what we are." His voice rose to an hysterical pitch. He was shaking Calvin again. "We must find out what's wrong here. Either we are victims of some ghastly experiment — or we're all monsters!"
Brian Aldiss
Monsters cannot be announced. One cannot say: 'here are our monsters', without immediately turning the monsters into pets.
Jacques Derrida
The thing about good pulp is that you trust the reader and you know that the mind is a machine to process metaphors so of course all those connections will be there. But you've also granted the fantastic its own dynamic and allowed that awe. There's no contradiction. So I want to have monsters as a metaphor but I also want monsters because monsters are cool. There's no contradiction.
