Neil Gaiman
“Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.”
Neil Gaiman, Coraline

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Be silly. Be honest. Be kind.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Hans Christian Andersen
“To travel is to live.”
Hans Christian Andersen, The Fairy Tale of My Life: An Autobiography

“Traveling is like flirting with life. It's like saying, 'I would stay and love you, but I have to go; this is my station.”
Lisa St. Aubin de Teran

Oprah Winfrey
“Step Away from the Mean Girls…
…and say bye-bye to feeling bad about your looks.
Are you ready to stop colluding with a culture that makes so many of us feel physically inadequate? Say goodbye to your inner critic, and take this pledge to be kinder to yourself and others.

This is a call to arms. A call to be gentle, to be forgiving, to be generous with yourself. The next time you look into the mirror, try to let go of the story line that says you're too fat or too sallow, too ashy or too old, your eyes are too small or your nose too big; just look into the mirror and see your face. When the criticism drops away, what you will see then is just you, without judgment, and that is the first step toward transforming your experience of the world.”
Oprah Winfrey
