'The answer is that it does not matter what you think, the mon | Golden Books™

"The answer is that it does not matter what you think, the monster said, because your mind will contradict itself a hundred times each day. You wanted her to go at the same time you were desperate for me to save her. Your mind will believe comforting lies while also knowing the painful truths that make those lies necessary. And your mind will punish you for believing both."

“But how do you fight it?” Conor asked, his voice rough. “How do you fight all the different stuff inside?”

"By speaking the truth, the monster said. As you spoke it just now."
"You do not write your life with words
," the monster said. "You write it with actions. What you think is not important. It is only important what you do."

There was a long silence as Conor re-caught his breath.
“So what do I do?” he finally asked.

"You do what you did just now, the monster said. You speak the truth."

“That’s it?”
"You think it is easy?", The monster raised two enormous eyebrows. "You were willing to die rather than speak it."
