As
I have already mentioned in an earlier post I am currently reading “The Land of
Stories’ by Chris Colfer. I have now
come across three quotes that seem to relate to our society today. This
first quote makes me think of the many politicians who may have been loved and
admired at one time and perhaps may be controlled by certain citizens but
obviously aren’t favored ALL citizens.
“People only love you as long as
they’re getting something out of you,but the minute you say something they
don’t want to hear or do something they don’t want to see, all the admiration
drains from their hearts.” – Ezmia to Rumple, Land of Stories Vol. 2 pg 156,
Chris Colfer
“Now that the Enchantess is back,
it’s as if the world has stopped. Everyone stays indoors, too afraid to
come outside .. .” Froggy to twins, Land
of Stories Vol. 2 pg 160, Chris Colfer
“It’s a sign of the times I’m
afraid. It’s like this in all the
villages in all the kingdoms. No one leaves their home unless it’s
absolutely necessary.” Froggy to twins, Land of Stories Vol. 2 pg 165,
Chris Colfer
Though the words in the book were not bolded I
post it that way for emphasis.
