Kat Howard Quotes

There Are Stories Where You Must Wear Out Your Iron Shoes To Right A Wrong, Where Children Are Baked Into Pies, Where Jealousy Cuts Off Hands And Cuts Out Hearts. We Forget, Because The Stories End With Those Ritual Words - Happily Ever After - All The Darkness, All The Pain, All The Effort That Comes Before. People Say They Want A Fairy Tale Life, But What They Really Want Is The Part That Happens Off The Page, After The Oven Has Been Escaped, After The Clock Strikes Midnight. They Want The Part That Doesn't Come With Glass Slippers Still Stained With A Stepsister's Blood, Or A Lover Blinded By An Angry Mother's Thorns. If You Live Through A Fairy Tale, You Don't Make It Through Unscathed Or Unchanged. Hands
