About This Quote

In fairy tales the evil characters disappear or die, in reality, evil spreads while you wait for your hero on a horse, only to realise the sword to save yourself was always in your hand. The story of Cinderella and her evil step-sisters is a bewitching one: the tragic heroine and her pure sisters (reluctantly forced into the ball by their wicked stepmother) are transformed into beautiful females by magic. The story ends with the happy couple getting married and having a happily ever after. The fairy tale, as well as many others like it, has been dubbed as ‘a symbol of hope and justice’ by many authors such as C S Lewis and John Bunyan. ‘The moral that we draw from this story is that we should all try to treat each other with equal respect and kindness.’
