“You are you that is truer than true”
“Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.”
“A wonder tale can be truer than true," I said. I had learned (...) that the deepest kind of truth can be found in the strangest and wildest of stories. One may not meet a fire-breathing dragon on the way to the well. One may not encounter an army of toothed snakes in the woodshed. That does not make the wisdom in those tales any less real.”
“There's no truer sign of love, nothing more beautiful, than sacrifice.”
“Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.”
