“Once upon a time there was a little prince who lived on a planet scarcely bigger than himself and who had need for a friend.”

“Blessed is the man who devotes his life to something bigger than himself and finds himself surrounded by friends who share his passion.”

“And the prince who had once been a bear pulled close the girl who had once had no name, and kissed her.”

“Once upon a time there was a young lady who lived in a marsh, and her name was Poison.”

“Once upon a time there was a bear and a bee who lived in a wood and were the best of friends. All summer long the bee collected nectar from morning to night while the bear lay on his back basking in the long grass. When winter came the bear realised he had nothing to eat and thought to himself 'I hope that busy little bee will share some of his honey with me.' But the bee was nowhere to be found - he had died of a stress induced coronary disease.”

“Once upon a time, I had two close friends. Shocking, I know, given my natural charm, but there are those who just don't appreciate my brilliance.”
