- The Story of the Two Messengers
- The Story of the Waxing and Waning Moon
- The Story of the Serpent and his Cast Skin
- The Story of the Banana

Famous quotes containing the word stories:
“I am surprised at the way people seem to perceive me, and sometimes I read stories and hear things about me and I go “ugh.” I wouldn’t like her either. It’s so unlike what I think I am or what my friends think I am.”
—Hillary Rodham Clinton (b. 1947)
