Fairytale Wisdom

I've always loved fairytales - when I was a kid and even now when I'm literally an "adult". Fairytales hide so much wisdom, we need in our life. Sometimes we actually understand their real hidden ideas when we grow older. So now, make a cup of tea or coffee and give yourself a little moment to think about all the beautiful thoughts, hidden between the lines of my favourite fairytales.

Have courage and be kind. Where there is kindness, there is goodnes. Where there is goodness, there is magic. - Popelka

Even miracles take a little time - Popelka

Love is a song, that never ends - Bambi

Peter Pan

Never say goodbye because goodbye means going away and going away means forgetting

The moment you doubt whether you can fly, you cease for ever to be able to do it.

You know that place between sleep and awake, that place where you still remember dreaming? That’s where I’ll always love you. That’s where I’ll be waiting.

There are many different kinds of bravery. There's the bravery of thinking of others before one's self. Now, your father has never brandished a sword nor fired a pistol, thank heavens. But he has made many sacrifices for his family, and put away many dreams. 

Michael: Where did he put them? 

Mrs. Darling: He put them in a drawer. And sometimes, late at night, we take them out and admire them. But it gets harder and harder to close the drawer... He does. And that is why he is brave. 

Think happy thoughts and you'll fly.

Dreams do come true, if only we wish hard enough. You can have anything in life if you will sacrifice everything else for it.

The Little Prince

Language is the source of misunderstanding. 

And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye. 

Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.

You see, one loves the sunset when one is so sad.

Grown-ups like numbers. When you tell them about a new friend, they never ask questions about what really matters. They never ask: ‘What does his voice sound like?’ ‘What games does he like best?’ ‘Does he collect butterflies?’ They ask: ‘How old is he?’ ‘How many brothers does he have?’ ‘How much does he weigh?’ ‘How much money does he have?’ Only then do they think they know him. If you tell grown-ups, ‘I saw a beautiful red brick house, with geraniums at the windows and doves at the roof…,’ they won’t be able to imagine such a house. You have to tell them, ‘I saw a house worth a thousand francs.’ Then they exclaim, ‘What a pretty house! 

Why are you drinking? - the little prince asked.

- In order to forget - replied the drunkard.

- To forget what? - inquired the little prince, who was already feeling sorry for him.

- To forget that I am ashamed - the drunkard confessed, hanging his head.

- Ashamed of what? - asked the little prince who wanted to help him.

- Ashamed of drinking! - concluded the drunkard, withdrawing into total silence.

Alice in Wonderland

I can't go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.

Begin at the beginning," the King said, very gravely, "and go on till you come to the end: then stop.” 

Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"

"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."

"I don't much care where –"

"Then it doesn't matter which way you go.”

Alice: How long is forever? 

White Rabbit: Sometimes, just one second.” 

Imagination is the only weapon in the war against Reality.
