To my way of thinking, Troitzky has no peer among endgame compsers no one else has composed so many and such varied endings of the first rank.
Jose Raul Capablanca

Not only are there no happy endings,' she told him, 'there aren't even any endings.
Neil Gaiman
Image
It was just like him, she thought with him, a happy ending was always a foregone conclusion. But such was the power of his faith that when she was with him she found herself believing in happy endings, too.

If you wake up for a moment and look around at life, you will observe that nothing here lasts, nothing works out. There are no happy endings. All accomplishments are washed away by death or by the next moment.
Frederick Lenz

People who live in difficult circumstances need to know that happy endings are possible. Page 1.

The biggest reason that positive endings don't happen is because employees are trained on policies and rules rather than principles.

What if you began to expect the best from any situation? Isn't it possible that you could write new chapters in your life with happy endings? Suspend your disbelief? Take a leap of faith? After all, what have you got to lose but misery and lack?

You want happy endings, read cookbooks.
Dean Young

Happy endings are still endings.
Gregory Maguire

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
Image
When we're young, we like happy endings. When we're a little older, we think happy endings are unrealistic and so we prefer bad but credible endings. When we're older still, we realize happy endings aren't so bad after all.
Margaret Atwood
Image
True stories seldom have endings. I don't want a happy ending, I want more story.
Frances Hardinge
Image
As a rule, pawn endings have a forced character, and they can be worked out conclusively.
Mark Dvoretsky
Image
It is better to spend one day contemplating the birth and death of all things than a hundred years never contemplating beginnings and endings.
Gautama Buddha
Image
Ice is for death and endings.
Guy Gavriel Kay

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

Happy endings are absolutely ludicrous, they're not true at all. We see the guy carry the girl across the threshold and everybody lives happily ever after -- that's bullshit. Three weeks later he's beating her up and she's suing for divorce and he's got cancer.
Robert Altman

If you are interested in happy endings, you would be better off reading some other book. In this book, not only is there no happy ending, there is no happy beginning and very few happy things in the middle. This is because not very many happy things happened in the lives of the three Baudelaire youngsters.
Daniel Handler
Image
Everything has two endings- a horse, a piece of string, a phone call. Before a life, air. And after. As silence is not silence, but a limit of hearing.
Jane Hirshfield
Image
Sometimes, people end up thankful for what they mourned. You cannot achieve this state by seeking tragedy, but you can keep yourself open more to sorrow's richness than to unmediated despair. Tragedies with happy endings may be sentimental tripe, or they may be the true meaning of love.
Andrew Solomon
Image
The beginnings and endings of all human undertakings are untidy.
John Galsworthy
Image
I never had stock endings. I didn't believe in stock endings. To make the [reader] happy was not my objective, but to make the [reader] say, Yeah, that's what would happen - that was my objective.
Jack Kirby
Image
Mundanes who involve themselves in things they know nothing about are likely to meet unpleasant endings.
Cassandra Clare
Image
The word 'however' is like an imp coiled beneath your chair. It induces ink to form words you have not yet seen, and lines to march across the page and overshoot the margin. There are no endings. If you think so you are deceived as to their nature. They are all beginnings. Here is one.
