  • “‘It’s true,’ she said. ‘Sometimes I do pretend I am a princess. I pretend I am a princess, so that I can try and behave like one.’”
    A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett (Introduction)
  • “Men are like woodland creatures. You have to lure them to you with tiny breadcrumbs and soft words of encouragement. You cannot simply whip out a rock and conk them over the head with it.”
    Clarisse Grimaldi Renaldo
  • “A princess never purchases anything off the rack, Amelia, and NEVER from a catalogue.”
    Clarisse Grimaldi Renaldo
  • “A girl has to have some pride.”
    Shameeka Taylor

    Boris Pelkowski

    Mia Thermopolis
  • “I swear, I have sat next to the Emperor of Japan, OK? I once shook the hand of Prince William. I even stood next to IMELDA MARCOS in line for the Ladies’ Room at The Producers. But none of those events ever made me nervous as Lana does with a mere glance.”
    Mia Thermopolis

  • Oh, you know, the usual. Boris must have cracked under all the pressure AEHS teachers put on us, and why can’t the administration cancel finals like they did in Harry Potter 2. Only she didn’t listen, because it’s not like anyone is dead, or a giant snake was chasing us around, or anything.
