“Out of the ugliness of the ironworks lepers will eat, children will be born, their parents will grow old.”
Helen McCarthy, Hayao Miyazaki: Master of Japanese Animation

“Antiheroes
Aren't just black and white; they exploit the mystery and allure of shadow, of shades of grey. For the writer, they offer more story possibilities than heroes. They could tip either way, either supporting or fighting him. Reformed antiheroes could revert to bad ways, and even on the side of good, but they cab still use methods that would make a true hero blush or flinch. The only problem is that the characteristics that make them antiheroes can, if use for good, transform them into heroes; and then life tends to be much less entertaining.”
Helen McCarthy
