“I found out the hard way that fairy tales and true love don't exist”
“Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.”
“Fairy tales do not tell children the dragons exist. Children already know that dragons exist. Fairy tales tell children the dragons can be killed.”
“But it was time to realize that I wasn't Cinderella, and no matter how hard I wished it were true, life wasn't a fairy tale where everyone lives happily ever after.”
“The thing about fairy tales was having faith in the things that don't come true, and appreciating them when they do.”
“You don't want to work to fall in love, you want to be in love. Like in a fairy tale.”
