Darren Shan Quote
Never trust fairy tales. Any story that ends with ‘They all lived happily ever after’ is a crock. There are no happy endings. No endings, full stop. Life goes on. There’s always something new around the corner. You can overcome major obstacles, face great danger, look evil in the eye, and live to tell the tale–but that’s not the end. Life sweeps you forward, swings you around, bruises and batters you, drops some new drama or tragedy in your lap, never lets go until you get to the one true end–death. As long as you’re breathing, your story’s still going.
