“Something with inner beauty will live forever, like the scent of a rose.”

“Now that all the beauty of my old life is gone, I crave it like good. A beautiful thing like this rose: I almost want to eat it, to swallow it whole to replace the beauty I've lost.”

“The magic is over, but its effects will live forever.”

“Just because something is beautiful doesn´t mean it´s good.”

“In stories like Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast, they always say the heroine is 'as good as she is beautiful.' I wondered if people just wanted that to be true, wanted the beautiful to be good. I wondered if they wanted the ugly to be bad because then they wouldn't have to feel bad for them.”

“Who dares disturb my roses?"Why did I say that”

“Everyone can use a little beauty.”
