Happiness, you see, its just an illusion of Fate, a heavenly sleight of hand designed to make you believe in fairy tales. But there's no happily ever after. You'll only find happy endings in books. Some books.

About This Quote

The theory that life is a dream and we only live in the reality we perceive is a fairly common one. It’s also a fairly reasonable one, as it explains much of what we see and experience. But the idea that we must try to make our dreams come true is a dangerous one. There is much more to life than dreams and expectations.

There are moments of happiness, but those moments are not enough. The power of Fate, the power of the universe, has something greater planned for us. It has been planning for us from before we were born, from before time itself was created.

And that plan is great beyond our wildest expectations.
