“Whatever comes," she said, "cannot alter one thing. If I am a princess in rags and tatters, I can be a princess inside. It would be easy to be a princess if I were dressed in cloth of gold, but it is a great deal more of a triumph to be one all the time when no one knows it.”

“Never did the world make a queen of a girl who hides in houses and dreams without traveling.”
― Roman Payne, The Wanderess

"That sounds like a pretty good story too.”
― Marissa Meyer, Fairest

“Every girl pretends she is a princess at one point, no matter how little her life is like that.”
― Alex Flinn, Beastly
