And with you, the monster inside me feels human.

— Sadia Hakim

I never really talked about my personal life to anyone, not even my best friend. I didn’t share my soul with people, and the ones I did share with made me regret it. But with you, it was different. I felt seen, heard, and understood. I felt human; the monster in me felt human.

— Sadia Hakim

I am afraid I like it when I’m with you. I feel human at the level of my quarks.

— Sadia Hakim

The monster inside me feels human when I’m with you. I want to feel human. Will you make me feel human?

— Sadia Hakim

I am a monster, yet with you, I feel human.

— Sadia Hakim

There is a beast caged within the prison of my ribs — and with you, it learns to feel human.

— Sadia Hakim

You make the wild beast inside me tame and docile.
