True education is a kind of never ending story — a matter of continual beginnings, of habitual fresh starts, of persistent newness.

J. R. R. Tolkien

Tell me a story, Pew. What kind of story, child? A story with a happy ending. There’s no such thing in all the world. As a happy ending? As an ending.

Jeanette Winterson

Do not start a story unless you have an ending in mind. You can change the story's ending if you wish, but you should always have a destination.

Gene Wolfe

When the ending finally comes to me, I often have to backtrack and make the beginning point towards that ending. Other times, I know exactly what the ending will be before I begin, like with the story "A Brief Encounter With the Enemy." It was all about the ending - that's what motivated me.

Said Sayrafiezadeh

My love for you has no depth, its boundaries are ever-expanding. My love and my life with you will be a never-ending story. My love with you is never-ending

M. Christina White

True love never has a happy ending, because there is no ending to true love.

Alexander the Great

Every real story is a never ending story.

Michael Ende

Teaching is a never-ending story. The work is never over; the job is never done.

Andy Hargreaves

Make education a continuing, never-ending process.

Nido R Qubein

Every Great Story deserves a Great Ending and 'The Dark Knight Rises' is our Attempt to give that GREAT story, a GREAT ENDING.

Christopher Nolan

It's a tough job to tell a story when the audience already knows the ending, and the ending is bleak.

Walter Jon Williams

- the only difference between a happy ending and a sad ending is where you decide the story ends.

Andrew Kaufman

Education is not a product: mark, diploma, job, money-in that order; it is a process, a never-ending one.

Bel Kaufman

We’d turn our lives into a terrible adventure. A true-life horror story with a happy ending. A trial we’d survive to talk about.

Chuck Palahniuk

I would like to believe this is a story I’m telling. I need to believe it. I must believe it. Those who can believe that such stories are only stories have a better chance. If it’s a story I’m telling, then I have control over the ending. Then there will be an ending, to the story, and real life will come after it. I can pick up where I left off.

Margaret Atwood

True stories seldom have endings. I don't want a happy ending, I want more story.
