“To die, one must first have been alive. And the Beast could finally say that by finding love, he had lived.”
―
Serena Valentino,
The Beast Within
“The words wounded deeper than the bruises and the scars from any physical pain he inflicted on me. At least those wounds healed.” ― Serena Valentino, Fairest of All
“Practically every princess in peril has been saved by Love's First Kiss! For goodness' sake, between witches and fairies, can't we think of something more original? I'm weary of this. Why must a young girl need a man to save her? Why can't a princess fight for her own life, break her own curse? Why must it always be a prince? By Hades, I want to kill Prince Phillip on principle, just so we don't have yet one more prince kissing some helpless sleeping girl, making her feel like she has to marry him out of gratitude.” ― Serena Valentino, Mistress of All Evil
“I cannot live in fear of losing him, for fear of not living my life at all.” ― Serena Valentino, Fairest of All
“She honestly didn’t know what was worse: living her life in the dream world, or living in a world where everyone lied to her.” ― Serena Valentino, Mistress of All Evil: A Tale of the Dark Fairy
“Only one thing comforted him: he had finally learned what it was to love. And the feeling was deeper and more meaningful than anything he’d felt before. He felt like he was dying. To die, one must have first been alive. And the Beast could finally say that by finding love, he had lived.” ― Serena Valentino, The Beast Within: A Tale of Beauty's Prince
“Well, well, my dear. Are we so brokenhearted as that? Is the loss of that terrible prince really worth your life?” ― Serena Valentino, Poor Unfortunate Soul
“So many books to read and worlds to escape into, so much history to learn. No matter what was happening, no matter how distressing it was, all she had to do was go to the library and it would all be well in her world” ― Serena Valentino, Mother Knows Best
“Magic Mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?” ― Serena Valentino, Fairest of All
“The old queen had failed them so miserably... She was such a bitter disappointment. But Ursula was different. There was no one to distract her, no one for her to love. She was alone in the world, alone in her grief, and alone with her pain. No, she wouldn't disappoint them. Unlike the old queen, Ursula would be able to fill her heart with hate.” ― Serena Valentino, Poor Unfortunate Soul
“How do you honor a witch who betrayed you?” ― Serena Valentino, Mistress of All Evil: A Tale of the Dark Fairy
“It was strange having so much knowledge at once and having so little power to direct her own fate. But she listened, she watched, and she learned.” ― Serena Valentino, Mistress of All Evil: A Tale of the Dark Fairy
“We will be different people after tonight. Different versions of ourselves.” ― Serena Valentino, Mother Knows Best
“In the end, everything isn't always as black-and-white as the markings on a Dalmatian puppy. Even for an evil thing like Cruella De Vil.” ― Serena Valentino, Evil Thing
“Christmastime was always my favorite time of year. It did something to me. It made me softer. More kindhearted. Not an affliction I fall prey to lately. But back then I loved the days leading up to Christmas almost as much as I loved the day itself.” ― Serena Valentino, Evil Thing
“To die, one must have first been alive. And the Beast could finally say that by finding love, he had lived.” ― Serena Valentino, The Beast Within: A Tale of Beauty's Prince
“Sometimes we create images of the people we love and hate in our minds, and those images override what we see with our eyes, even when they are right in front of us. Even if we've imagined them to be monsters, to see them as they truly are with our eyes and our hearts is sometimes shocking.” ― Serena Valentino, Mother Knows Best
“You have to watch our for the quiet ones. Take some advice from me. The quiet observant girls are the deadliest.” ― Serena Valentino, Evil Thing
“It had become quite clear to me that I gated being told what to do. I wanted to be independent.” ― Serena Valentino, Evil Thing
