Quotes from classic literature on denouement:


"Every tragedy falls into two parts,--Complication and Unravelling or Denouement." - The Poetics of Aristotle by Aristotle

"But with the denouement of the scene he threw off all restraint, and laughed aloud." - Ten Years Later by Dumas, Alexandre

"He was not sorry for the denouement of his visit: he only wished it had come sooner, and spared him a certain waste of emotion." - The Age of Innocence by Wharton, Edith


Kimberly: "I love fairy tales. I've always wanted to be a princess, and get rescued by a handsome prince on a white horse."

Tommy: "Well... how about a white tiger?"

Kimberly: "That would work."
