Richard Morgan

Neil Gaiman

That's the thing about being the product of happily marries parents, You grow up thinking the fairy tale is real, and more than that, you think you're entitled to live it. So far, though, it wasn't working out as planned.

Nicholas Sparks

Burton sighed, laughed loudly, and said, "Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.” Another fairy tale to give men hope. The old religions have been discredited - although some refuse to face even that fact - so new ones must be invented.”.

Philip José Farmer

A myth is, of course, not a fairy story. It is the presentation of facts belonging to one category in the idioms appropriate to another. To explode a myth is accordingly not to deny the facts but to re-allocate them.

Gilbert Ryle

I see myself as a novelist, period. I mean, the material I work with is what is classified as science fiction and fantasy, and I really don't think about these things when I'm writing. I'm just thinking about telling a story and developing my characters.

Roger Zelazny
