The “dragons” in the quote symbolize the challenges, fears, or adversities we face in life. Fairy tales, through their narratives of heroes overcoming. They inspire us to confront our own struggles with bravery and determination, offering a framework for imagining triumph over difficulties.

"Oh, what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive." - Walter Scott, poem "Marmion" 1808.

Never forget - the Boston Tea Party was about TARRIFFS which is a TAX on American consumers.
Kinda like last night's election results where tea and coffee drinkers as voters came together and decided what's better for our communities.
No TARRIFFS and No Extremists.
