Fairy tales are more than true; not because they tell us dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.
Your lips are like wine, and I want to get drunk
--William Shakespeare
Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat. --Theodore Roosevelt
