Lillian Smith Quotes

[The Truth] Is What Actually Happens. Not What You Want To Happen. Not What You're Afraid Will Happen. We Make Up Stories When We Want Things To Happen Or Are Afraid They May Happen. And Sometimes We Do It For Fun-or To Scare People Or Make Them Do Our Way Or To Hurt Them. And Sometimes We Do It Because It's A Pretty Story And We Tell It Just As We Fly A Kite Or Send Balloons Floating.
