Thomas, says there are no real dragons. Only they are in your head, he says."" Thomas is right, my love, so do not be afraid of the dark."" But they are in my head sometimes, so I guess they are real.

About This Quote

Thomas is right, my love, so do not be afraid of the dark. Thomas is a character from the story "Little Princess", by Frances Hodgson Burnett. He is the wise and wizened servant who lives with the Little Princess and her mother. When he sees her afraid of something, he calmly intones: "There are no real dragons, my princess. Only they are in your head." This passage has become a famous piece of children's literature and also a stock phrase used to encourage people to look at their fears and find that they don't really exist.
