“i made myself a snowball
As perfect as can be.
I thought I'd keep it as a pet,
And let it sleep with me.
I made it some pajamas
And a pillow for it's head.
Then last night it ran away,
But first - It wet the bed.”

“I opened a book and in I strode.
Now nobody can find me.
I've left my chair, my house, my road,
My town and my world behind me.
I'm wearing the cloak, I've slipped on the ring,
I've swallowed the magic potion.
I've fought with a dragon, dined with a king
And dived in a bottomless ocean.
I opened a book and made some friends.
I shared their tears and laughter
And followed their road with its bumps and bends
To the happily ever after.
I finished my book and out I came.
The cloak can no longer hide me.
My chair and my house are just the same,
But I have a book inside me.”

“Stories have a way of changing faces. They are unruly things, undisciplined, given to delinquency and the throwing of erasers. This is why we must close them up into thick, solid books, so they cannot get out and cause trouble.”

“I'm not lost, because I haven't any idea where to go that I might get lost on the way to. I'd like to get lost, because then I'd know where I was going, you see.”

“Tôi gửi tình yêu cho mùa hè, nhưng mùa hè không giữ nổi. Mùa hè chỉ biết ra hoa, phượng đỏ sân trường và tiếng ve nỉ non trong lá. Mùa hè ngây ngô, giống như tôi vậy. Nó chẳng làm được những điều tôi kí thác. Nó để Hà Lan đốt tôi, đốt rụi. Trái tim tôi cháy thành tro, rơi vãi trên đường về.”

“It considered trying to explain their error to them, but what would be the use? They would only go away with hurt feelings. You can't always expect people, or squirrels, to be rational.”

“Điều đáng ngán nhất trong tình yêu là khi mình yêu ai, mình không biết họ có biết điều đó hay không. Điều đáng chán thứ nhì là khi mình biết họ biết điều đó rồi thì mình lại không biết học có yêu lại mình hay không. Cả hai điều nhất nhì đó, tôi đều gom đủ. Vì vậy, tôi càng chán tợn. Tôi chẳng biết làm sao thoát ra khỏi nỗi buồn. Tôi đành tìm đến âm nhạc để giải khuây.”

“The forest stretched on seemingly forever with the most monotonous predictability, each tree just like the next - trunk, branches, leaves; trunk, branches, leaves. Of course a tree would have taken a different view of the matter. We all tend to see the way others are alike and how we differ, and it's probably just as well we do, since that prevents a great deal of confusion. But perhaps we should remind ourselves from time to time that ours is a very partial view, and that the world is full of a great deal more variety than we ever manage to take in.”

“Và tôi xoay lưng nằm úp mặt vô tường, buồn muốn khóc. Tôi làm con cá nhỏ, bơi trong nỗi buồn. Nỗi buồn mênh mông như biển, tôi bơi suốt đêm vẫn chưa ra khỏi. Nhưng tôi vẫn lặng lẽ bơi, ngậm ngùi, cô độc, thỉnh thoảng quẫy mạnh chiếc đuôi dài làm xuất hiện những đốm bọt màu sữa như những ngôi sao nhỏ.”

“Rising up into the air, they took to the sky and flew. From west and beyond west, into the wind and through it, they came past countless moons and suns. One laughed and briefly wore a scarf of raindrops in her hair, and then with wicked feet she kicked a cloud and caused rain to swamp a boat.”

“Maybe he hadn't thought the war through. It had seemed like simple fun when he had first pictured it, with a glorious beginning, a difficult but valor-filled middle, and a victorious end. He hadn't accounted for the fact that there might not be much of a resolution to the battle, and he hadn't imagined what it would feel like when the war just sort of ended, without anyone admitting defeat and congratulating him for his bravery.”

“But before any of the small appliances who may be listening to this tale should begin to think that they might do the same thing, let them be warned: ELECTRICITY IS VERY DANGEROUS. Never play with old batteries! Never put your plug in a strange socket! And if you are in any doubt about the voltage of the current where you are living, ask a major appliance.”

“Trà Long, làng mình bao giờ cũng đẹp. Cháu hiểu rõ điều đó hơn mẹ cháu. Làng mình đẹp, nhưng buồn. Hồi chú còn nhỏ, làng vui hơn. Cũng có thể làng vẫn thế thôi, nhưng bây giờ chú thấy khác. Khi lớn lên, người ta thường thấy mọi thứ khác đi, cháu ạ! Chúng ít rực rỡ hơn và ít trong suốt hơn. Nhưng dù sao chí vẫn tin trong mắt cháu, thế giới vẫn còn nguyên vẹn, dù ngày mai khi cháu đến đây thì chú đã đi rồi...”

“Max had to think about these new developments. He hadn't liked getting hit by a rock--his stomach still ached from then rock Judith had thrown--but then again, when his team had used rocks on Alexander, it had caused him to surrender. Now the Bad Guys only had three soldiers left, which would make victory for Max's team more likely. So now it made perfect sense. He was wrong to ban rocks, or even animals. The key was to use all the weapons at one's disposal, but to just make sure you won when you used them.”

“Dust is not a constant. There’s not a fixed quantity that has always been the same. Conscious beings make Dust—they renew it all the time, by thinking and feeling and reflecting, by gaining wisdom and passing it on. And if you help everyone else in your worlds to do that, by helping them to learn and understand about themselves and each other and the way everything works, and by showing them how to be kind instead of cruel, and patient instead of hasty, and cheerful instead of surly, and above all how to keep their minds open and free and curious…Then they will renew enough to replace what is lost through one window. So there could be one left open.”

“That's why I bake. To fill fairies with goodness."
And it was true, she realized. She didn't run the kitchen just to boss other fairies around. She didn't give orders just to make herself feel important. Well, at least she wouldn't anymore. No. The day before, she hadn't missed that part of her job at all. She had missed the baking. She had missed creating something for others to enjoy.
And, oh, how she wanted to go back to work!”
― Dulcie's Taste of Magic
