Fairy godmother quotes from Legends of Tomorrow

Zari

Prudence, this is your fairy godmother?

Yes. She protects me.

Sara

By hurting other people.

Fairy Godmother

Not at all. I only want to help little Prudence. For you see,

Ray

Is that music?

Fairy Godmother

[continuing her song]

Mick

Shut up.

Ray

Well, I didn't want her to stop singing.

Fairy Godmother

All I want is to make the world a happier place.

Constantine

Well, you got (Prudence's) mother thrown in the bloody clink. And what about that bloke who had his eyes pecked out of his skull, eh?

Fairy Godmother

[hard] That man was a liar. They are all liars. And simple-minded pests like that must be taught a lesson.

Constantine

Ooo, "pests". Intriguing choice of words.

Fairy Godmother

Before Prudence, all the girls I helped were just take, take, take. "I want a new dress, godmother." "I want to go to the ball, godmother." So I gave and I gave, no matter how absurd the request. I mean, who would ever choose to wear glass slippers? Imagine the blisters! And what did I get in return? A thousand years locked away in a dank and miserable dimension.

Constantine

So it was humans who put you away, eh? Well, it serves you right, you bitter old nag. You don't want Prudence happy. You want her raging. That's how you settle the score, by using a child's anger to rain down hellfire on those poor bastards out there.

Zari

Prudence, listen to me. This isn't who you are. You're a good person.

He tried to kill my mother. This town, these people, they've killed so many others already. They deserve to burn.

Zari

And they will pay for their ignorance, but not like that.

Fairy Godmother

How else will they learn, dearie? If these people aren't taught a lesson today, they will go and hurt others for days and years to come. You come from the future. Can you honestly tell this child that the hearts of men change in all that time?

Do they?

Zari

No, they don't. People always fear what they don't understand. And that fear turns them into monsters. But we can't let it turn us into monsters, too. We have to be better than them.
