My family doesn't do happy endings. We do sad endings or frustrating endings or no endings at all. We are hardwired to expect the next interruption or disappearance or broken promise.

Hope Solo

Margaret Atwood

I'm not an endings person. I don't do endings. There may have been people in the band who wanted this to be an ending from time to time, but me and Amy don't really do endings. You cannot escape from us. Once we're friends with you, that's it.

I hate endings. Just detest them. Beginnings are definitely the most exciting, middles are perplexing and endings are a disaster. … The temptation towards resolution, towards wrapping up the package, seems to me a terrible trap. Why not be more honest with the moment? The most authentic endings are the ones which are already revolving towards another beginning. That’s genius.

Sam Shepard

Ann Patchett

Unhappy endings can be as cheap as happy endings.

David O. Russell

I am hopeful, though not full of hope, and the only reason I don't believe in happy endings is because I don't believe in endings.

I always try to do true endings and that's where I got into trouble always because Hollywood wants to do happy endings.

Joe Eszterhas
