Dragon Slaying

A thought for the day:

Fairy tales do not tell children the dragons exist. Children already know that dragons exist. Fairy tales tell children the dragons can be killed. - G. K. Chesterton

I saw this quoted in an article about whether kids films are too scary these days. I think it sums up my feelings on the matter quite well too.

G. K. Chesterton? I love that guy. As the dedication in 'Good Omens' reads: "A guy who really knew what was going on".
