I like Cinderella because it posits that the world is out of balance when ugly people are in charge, and back in balance once the pretty people are plucked from the masses and elevated to royalty.
Plus we all know the royal ball was celebrating the brutal suppression of a peasant revolt.
Beauty and the Beast is about Stockholm syndrome
In the future, the Berlin wall will be a mile high, and made of steel. You too will be made to crawl, to lick children's blood from jackboots. There will be no creativity, only productivity. Instead of love there will be fear and distrust, instead of surrender there will be submission. Contact will be replaced with isolation, and joy with shame. Hope will cease to exist as a concept. The Earth will be covered with steel and concrete. There will be an electronic policeman in every head. Your children will be born in chains, live only to serve, and die in anguish and ignorance.
The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.
This may justify a whole thread on its own...

Tomorrow is like an empty canvas that extends endlessly, what should I sketch on it?
I LOLed.
It's funny because it's true.
The light that once I thought compassion still casting shadows in your action
The words you shared were cold transactions that bring me to curse what you've done
When you're up there absorbed in greatness with such success you've grown complacent
I hope you scorch your many faces when you fly too close to the sun
I could have had class. I could have been a contender.
I could have been somebody. Instead of a bum
Which is what I am
I aim at the stars
But sometimes I hit London
That's sweet! I used to be like that 10 years ago...
