“The happily ever after thing. It's great when she marries the prince or whatever and they say that. But they just don't show the part where there's a revolution and they drag her to the guillotine.”
“There’s no such thing as handsome princes, she told herself. There’s no such thing as happily ever after.”
“But in real life, happily-ever-after is just the beginning. It's where life starts.”
“Is not where I live happily ever after, or who with. It's the fact that I live happily ever after.”
“People in the real world would kill for a happily ever after, and you're willing to just throw it away ?"I look away from her. "It's hardly a happily ever after when you wind up right at the beginning.”
“If our school ever performed a play about the French Revolution, she could play the guillotine.”
