“It‘s poor judgement,” said Grandpa, “to call anything by a name. We don‘t know what a hobgoblin or a vampire or a troll is. Could be lots of things. You can‘t heave them into categories with labels and say they‘ll act one way or another. That‘d be silly. They‘re people. People who do things. Yes, that‘s the way to put it: people who do things.”
– Ray Bradbury, The October Country, “The Man Upstairs”
