In order for stories to work - for kids and for adults - they should scare. And you should triumph. There's no point in triumphing over evil if the evil isn't scary.

Life is sometimes hard. Things go wrong, in life and in love and in business and in friendship and in health and in all other ways that life can go wrong. And when things get tough, this is what you should do. Make good art.

Sometimes you wake up. Sometimes the fall kills you. And sometimes, when you fall, you fly.

An Angel who did not so much Fall as Saunter Vaguely Downwards.
