Famous quotes containing the word stories:

    “Though Margery is stricken dumb
    If thrown in Madge’s way,
    We three make up a solitude;
    For none alive to-day
    Can know the stories that we know
    Or say the things we say....”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Fairy tales are loved by the child not because the imagery he finds in them conforms to what goes on within him, but because—despite all the angry, anxious thoughts in his mind to which the fairy tale gives body and specific content—these stories always result in a happy outcome, which the child cannot imagine on his own.”
    —Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)

    “I found that they knew but little of the history of their race, and could be entertained by stories about their ancestors as readily as any way.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
