Susan Fletcher Quotes
Stories Are Thick With Meanings. You Can Fall In Love With A Story For What You Think It Says, But You Can't Know For Certain Where It Will Lead Your Listeners. If You're Telling A Tale To Teach Children To Be Generous, They May Fix Instead On The Part Where Your Hero Hides In An Olive Jar, Then Spend The Whole Next Day Fighting About Who Gets To Try It First.
People Take What They Need From The Stories They Hear. The Tale Is Often Wiser Than The Teller.
