Fairy Tale Quotes

Uncertainty in the pressure of vivid hopes and fears is painful, but must be endured if we wish to live without the support of comforting fairy tales Picture Quote #1

This is true happiness: to have no ambition and to work like a horse as if you had every ambition. To live far from men, not to need them and yet to love them. To have the stars above, the land to your left and the sea to your right and to realize of a sudden that in your heart, life has accomplished its final miracle: it has become a fairy tale Picture Quote #1

Then you grow older and that innocence is shattered and somewhere along the way the reality of life gets in the way and you’re hit by the realization that you can’t be all you wanted to be, you just might have to settle for a little bit less Picture Quote #1

I also like the whole idea of fairy tales and folk tales being a woman’s domain, considered a lesser domain at the time they were told Picture Quote #1

There have been a number of us working very, very hard to bring myth and fairy tales into public consciousness, through fantasy literature and other media. I hope we’re succeeding in some small way Picture Quote #1

No matter what you write, you actually can’t help retelling a fairy tale somewhere along the way Picture Quote #1
