Dreams Quote by Enchanted

“I know she's shy. I know she doesn't have very many friends. I just want her to be strong, you know? To be able to face the world for what it is. That's why I don't encourage the fairy tales. I don't want to set her up to believe in this 'dreams come true' nonsense. -Robert” quote by Enchanted
