Fairy Tales Quotes

If I’m away from you for more than an hour, I can’t stop thinking about you. I carry you in my spirit. I pray for you more than I pray for myself... I know you don’t believe in fairy tales. But, if you did, I’d want to be your knight in shining armor. You’ve been through so much. I don’t want to see you hurt anymore. Now I may not be able to give you all that your used to. But I do know I can love you past your pain Picture Quote #1

Fairy tales have rules. You are a princess or you aren’t. You are pure at heart or you aren’t. If you are pure at heart, or lucky, you might catch a break Picture Quote #1

Fairy tales begin with conflict because we all begin our lives with conflict. We are all misfit for the world, and somehow we must fit in, fit in with other people, and thus we must invent or find the means through communication to satisfy as well as resolve conflicting desires and instincts Picture Quote #1

The store of fairy tales, that blue chamber where stories lie waiting to be rediscovered, holds out the promise of just those creative enchantments, not only for its own characters caught in its own plotlines; it offers magical metamorphoses to the one who opens the door, who passes on what was found there, and to those who hear what the storyteller brings. The faculty of wonder, like curiosity can make things happen; it is time for wishful thinking to have its due Picture Quote #1

The more one knows fairy tales the less fantastical they appear; they can be vehicles of the grimmest realism, expressing hope against all the odds with gritted teeth Picture Quote #1

Since there are thousands of fairy tales, one may safely guess that there are probably equal numbers where the courage and determination of females rescue males, and vice versa Picture Quote #1

The old fairy tales are very, very violent, and these days I think we could do with a little less of it Picture Quote #1

People gave names to things so they could tell stories about them, goddam fairy tales about children who got out alive Picture Quote #1

From sentence to sentence, in fairy tales there is no reality that is subordinated to any other. Just as, outside the pages there is no reality Picture Quote #1

Though aware that there is nothing in the universe that suggests any purpose for humanity, one way that we can find a purpose is to study the universe by the methods of science, without consoling ourselves with fairy tales about its future, or about our own Picture Quote #1

All cities are geological; you cannot take three steps without encountering ghosts bearing all the prestige of their legends. We move within a closed landscape whose landmarks constantly draw us toward the past. Certain shifting angles, certain receding perspectives, allow us to glimpse original conceptions of space, but this vision remains fragmentary. It must be sought in the magical locales of fairy tales and surrealist writings: castles, endless walls, little forgotten bars, mammoth caverns, casino mirrors Picture Quote #1

Fairy tales are about money, marriage, and men. They are the maps and manuals that are passed down from mothers and grandmothers to help them survive Picture Quote #1

I’ve always loved fairy tales. I think they perhaps led me to theater rather than the other way around. As a child I wanted to invent a machine that could record my dreams, so I could watch them in the morning; or hire someone to draw the things I had in my head, because I knew I didn’t have the skill to do it myself. Theater is that machine. I can make these images come to life and actually walk around inside them for a while Picture Quote #1

I want to tell women that you need to love yourself and make yourself a priority. It’s only when you are happy yourself, can you make everyone else around you happy. I am still a dreamer and still believe in fairy tales, but there is only that much one should give another person. You need to keep something for yourself Picture Quote #1

People seem always actually to know, with a degree of pain that has required the comfort of fairy tales, that when you are dressed in any particular way at all, you are revealed rather than hidden Picture Quote #1

I never grew up reading or fantasizing about fairy tales. I was always too busy, like, outside being a kid Picture Quote #1

Fairy tales and mythology have always been an exaggerated distillation of the real world. Think of them as blueprints for how to deal with a multitude of situations that can arise in a person’s life. The beauty of them is that their analogies resonate so deeply and they also entertain while they teach Picture Quote #1

We’re all just big kids. That’s all we are. We are artistes. We grew up wanting to be part of the fantasy of the fairy tales and the stories Picture Quote #1

The narrative of so many fairy tales are timeless in so many different cultures, and they have been since the dawn of man. They represent escapism, but they all feature themes that have such poignancy in a modern world Picture Quote #1

We believed the fairy tales we told our children and we loved them beyond reason even when we were green and bungling about it. We were children loving our children. And that’s who we are still Picture Quote #1

People tend to think of fairy tales as archetypal. They are also extremely sensual, something which translates well over the ages Picture Quote #1

What I like about fairy tales is that they highlight the emotions within a story. The situations aren’t real, with falling stars and pirates. But what you do relate to is the emotions that the characters feel Picture Quote #1

Fairy tales, because they have a very clear structure, are easier to interfere with. Also they have this really weird logic: the kind of logic that you only really experience when you’re not feeling very well, or as a child Picture Quote #1

I think people should read fairy tales, because were hungry for a mythology that will speak to our fears Picture Quote #1

I have always been fascinated by the supernatural elements in stories, whether fairy tales, myths, film or literature Picture Quote #1

I wake each day and try to see what I might do that is of some value and joy. It’s a strange life. I don’t know how long it’ll go on. I don’t look past tomorrow. Anything beyond tomorrow seems like hearsay. Or fairy tales Picture Quote #1

Every kid loves fairy tales, stories of witches and giants and magicians. Then, when you get a little older you can’t read fairy tales anymore Picture Quote #1

I think the big thing is the fairy tale. It’s taking old folk fairy tales and retelling them in modern day. I think it’s just taking you out of everyday life, and everyone loves a good fairy tale Picture Quote #1

My father leaving the family shaped who I was and how I looked at the world. By the same token, my father telling me fairy tales that he had made up shaped me profoundly, too Picture Quote #1

I always felt and still feel that fairy tales have an emotional truth that is so deep that there are few things that really rival them Picture Quote #1
