Hold it. You know what I'd like to see? I'd like to see the three bears eat the three little pigs, and then the bears join up with the big bad wolf and eat Goldilocks and Little Red Riding Hood! Tell me a story like that, OK?
Bill Watterson (The Complete Calvin and Hobbes)
And in your deranged mind, what do you think the lesson of ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’ is?” Alex challenged him. “Easy,” Conner said. “Lock your doors! Robbers come in all shapes and sizes. Even curly-haired little girls can’t be trusted.” Alex grunted again and crossed her arms.
Chris Colfer (The Wishing Spell (The Land of Stories, #1))
Life is sort of like Goldilocks and the Three Bears, if you know what I mean. Some days are too big. Some days are much too small. But today was one of those rare days that was just right.
Leila Sales (Tonight the Streets Are Ours)
She always set three alarms for fear that the first employees to arrive would discover her sleeping - a Goldilocks without her bears
Billie Letts (Where the Heart Is)
Goldilocks and the Three Bears: No one ever questions why the Papa Bear and Mama Bear slept in separate beds. What was going on in that marriage? More backstory needed.
Jim Gaffigan
He says that woman speaks with nature. That she hears voices from under the earth. That wind blows in her ears and trees whisper to her. That the dead sing through her mouth and the cries of infants are clear to her. But for him this dialogue is over. He says he is not part of this world, that he was set on this world as a stranger. He sets himself apart from woman and nature. And so it is Goldilocks who goes to the home of the three bears, Little Red Riding Hood who converses with the wolf, Dorothy who befriends a lion, Snow White who talks to the birds, Cinderella with mice as her allies, the Mermaid who is half fish, Thumbelina courted by a mole. (And when we hear in the Navaho chant of the mountain that a grown man sits and smokes with bears and follows directions given to him by squirrels, we are surprised. We had thought only little girls spoke with animals.) We are the bird's eggs. Bird's eggs, flowers, butterflies, rabbits, cows, sheep; we are caterpillars; we are leaves of ivy and sprigs of wallflower. We are women. We rise from the wave. We are gazelle and doe, elephant and whale, lilies and roses and peach, we are air, we are flame, we are oyster and pearl, we are girls. We are woman and nature. And he says he cannot hear us speak. But we hear.
Susan Griffin (Woman and Nature: The Roaring Inside Her)
And in your deranged mind, what do you think the lesson of ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’ is?” Alex challenged him. “Easy,” Conner said. “Lock your doors! Robbers come in all shapes and sizes. Even curly-haired little girls can’t be trusted.” Alex grunted again and crossed her arms. She tried her best not to giggle; she didn’t want to validate her brother’s opinion. “‘Goldilocks’ is about consequences! Mrs. Peters said so herself,” Alex said.
Chris Colfer (The Wishing Spell (The Land of Stories, #1))
Learning how to play an instrument has always been near the top of my to-do list, but what are the chances now? There's little downtime with a column and a two-year-old, and after reading Goldilocks and the three Bears and going through half a bottle of wine with dinner on an average evening, imagining a day when I join Nathaniel on the Elgar Cello Concerto is not a vision but a hallucination. I'm at the point where the things on your to-do list get transferred to a should-have-done list, and one reason I write a column is for the privilege of vicariously sampling other worlds, dropping in with my passport, my notebook and my curiosity.
Steve López (The Soloist: A Lost Dream, an Unlikely Friendship, and the Redemptive Power of Music)
But south of the forest, well, that is an entirely different story.” Well that is an entirely different story. What a dedicated actor he is, his voice so crisp and dramatic. Next, he’ll tell me winter is coming and we need to battle the gray walkers, or the red riders, or whatever the blazes they’re called. I’m sick of this ridiculous farce. “So, tell me, Jon Snow, who lives south of the forest, then? Is it Goldilocks and the three bears?
Juno Heart (Prince of Never (Black Blood Fae, #1))
I observe too that the bed is neither too hard nor too soft. It’s a perfect bed. Just right. Goldilocks could set up shop here forever. Masturbate. I picture Goldilocks brazenly masturbating in this bed while the Three Bears watch. She is daring them with her slitty eyes to tell her to stop. The Bears are too polite to say anything. I laugh at what a picture that makes. Ha. Hahaha.
Mona Awad (Bunny)
In a far-off country there was once a little girl who was called Silver-hair, because her curly hair shone brightly. She was a sad romp, and so restless that she could not be kept quiet at home, but must needs run out and away, without leave. One day she started off into a wood to gather wild flowers, and into the fields to chase butterflies. She ran here and she ran there, and went so far, at last, that she found herself in a lonely place, where she saw a snug little house, in which three bears lived; but they were not then at home. The door was ajar, and Silver-hair pushed it open and found the place to be quite empty, so she made up her mind to go in boldly, and look all about the place, little thinking what sort of people lived there. Now the three bears had gone out to walk a little before this. They were the Big Bear, and the Middle-sized Bear, and the Little Bear; but they had left their porridge on the table to cool. So when Silver-hair came into the kitchen, she saw the three bowls of porridge. She tasted the largest bowl, which belonged to the Big Bear, and found it too cold; then she tasted the middle-sized bowl, which belonged to the Middle-sized Bear, and found it too hot; then she tasted the smallest bowl, which belonged to the Little Bear, and it was just right, and she ate it all. She went into the parlour, and there were three chairs. She tried the biggest chair, which belonged to the Big Bear, and found it too high; then she tried the middle-sized chair, which belonged to the Middle-sized Bear, and she found it too broad; then she tried the little chair, which belonged to the Little Bear, and found it just right, but she sat in it so hard that she broke it. Now Silver-hair was by this time very tired, and she went upstairs to the chamber, and there she found three beds. She tried the largest bed, which belonged to the Big Bear, and found it too soft; then she tried the middle-sized bed, which belonged to the Middle-sized Bear, and she found it too hard; then she tried the smallest bed, which belonged to the Little Bear, and found it just right, so she lay down upon it, and fell fast asleep. While Silver-hair was lying fast asleep, the three bears came home from their walk. They came into the kitchen, to get their porridge, but when the Big Bear went to his, he growled out: “SOMEBODY HAS BEEN TASTING MY PORRIDGE!” and the Middle-sized Bear looked into his bowl, and said: “Somebody Has Been Tasting My Porridge!” and the Little Bear piped: “Somebody has tasted my porridge and eaten it all up!” Then they went into the parlour, and the Big Bear growled: “SOMEBODY HAS BEEN SITTING IN MY CHAIR!” and the Middle-sized Bear said: “Somebody Has Been Sitting In My Chair!” and the Little Bear piped: “Somebody has been sitting in my chair, and has broken it all to pieces!” So they went upstairs into the chamber, and the Big Bear growled: “SOMEBODY HAS BEEN TUMBLING MY BED!” and the Middle-sized Bear said: “Somebody Has Been Tumbling My Bed!” and the little Bear piped: “Somebody has been tumbling my bed, and here she is!” At that, Silver-hair woke in a fright, and jumped out of the window and ran away as fast as her legs could carry her, and never went near the Three Bears’ snug little house again.

That was what the story of Goldilocks and the three bears was all about: breach of trust.
Alexander McCall Smith (The Charming Quirks of Others (Isabel Dalhousie, #7))
The new perspective on Paul – not that there is any single thing which can now be called by that name, despite the ambitious title of Jimmy Dunn’s collection of related articles 1 – has burst in, like the delightful Goldilocks, to disrupt the peaceful scene where the Three Reformation Bears were planning to have an undisturbed breakfast. She has sat on the chair of traditional justification-theology, and it now seems to be broken (though they have called in the carpenters from Louisville, Sydney and elsewhere to try to fix it).
N.T. Wright (Paul and His Recent Interpreters)
As with all fairy tales, a crime was committed. In "Snow White," there was a poisoning. A hostage situation was at the heart of "Beauty and the Beast." "Hansel and Gretel" featured attempted cannibalism. "Cinderella" involved the lesser offense of party crashing. North Carolina began with a trespassing. Not a "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" domestic breaking and entering but an act of large-scale land grabbing.
Monique Truong (Bitter in the Mouth)
I feel like one of the three bears right now. Goldilocks, is that you sleeping in my bed?
Melissa Cutler (One More Taste (One and Only Texas, #2))
The closest we can get to set hyphen rules are that the prefixes ex, self, and all always require hyphens while adverbs ending in ly never do: Goldilocks first told the jury that she had been walking through the dimly lit forest and mistook the three bears’ house for an all-inclusive resort. When the jury seemed skeptical, she changed her story and said she had been in a highly emotional state and was suffering from low self-esteem because her ex-boyfriend Jack left her to climb a beanstalk.
Jenny Baranick (Kiss My Asterisk: A Feisty Guide to Punctuation and Grammar)
I just hoped I made it to the epilogue of our fucked up little story - the one where Goldilocks met the three bears and rather than running for the hills, she called the wood cutter in to join them and crowned herself their queen. That was the kind of fairy tale I wanted to live in forever.
Caroline Peckham (Queen of Quarantine (Brutal Boys of Everlake Prep, #4))
Too many chili peppers. Yuck. Why would someone use so many? Is it a bear thing?
N.D. Jones (Bearly Gold: A Goldilocks and the Three Bears Reimagining (Fairy Tale Fatale, #2))
No matter the place, war looks, smells, and sounds the same. Wars also wreak the same turmoil. Grief and heartache. Starvation and desperation
N.D. Jones (Bearly Gold: A Goldilocks and the Three Bears Reimagining (Fairy Tale Fatale, #2))
What an idiot I am. I created a pact with children. Not even a blood pact but a vow that yields nothing for my kettle or Wake. A vow born of weakness. But a vow all the same. I will not fail them, no matter the cost.
N.D. Jones (Bearly Gold: A Goldilocks and the Three Bears Reimagining (Fairy Tale Fatale, #2))
Fayola wore nothing underneath. Nothing but skin in need of his touch. Hands, mouth and more. "Six months," she said, her voice a sultry whisper of repressed need.
N.D. Jones (Bearly Gold: A Goldilocks and the Three Bears Reimagining (Fairy Tale Fatale, #2))
No mission ever mattered. They were all inconsequential except as the most direct route to retirement. Then a small human girl held my hand and looked at me without an ounce of fear but with pounds of faith.
N.D. Jones (Bearly Gold: A Goldilocks and the Three Bears Reimagining (Fairy Tale Fatale, #2))
Ana was right. It was her life, and only she had a say in what she did with it. Not her parents. And right now, she wanted nothing more than to claim her man. After fetching her lockpicks and her room key from the table, she blew out the bedside candle, stepped outside, and secured the door. All abuzz with anticipation, Victoria crouched in the quiet hallway with her pickset and finagled the metal blades into Ramsay’s lock. It took only a few seconds to pop the three tumblers, and then the door crept inward.
Vivienne Savage (Goldilocks and the Bear (Once Upon a Spell, #3))
We should probably consider locking the door from time to time,” Eli pointed out with a shrug, looking more curious than angry, deeply inhaling the enticing scent. “That is a delicious smelling intruder.
Colette Rhodes (Gilded Mess (Three Bears, #1; Cheeky Fairy Tales, #1))
Can we keep her?” Eli asked eagerly. “You want to keep the girl that smells like marijuana and tears?” I replied drolly. And Seth’s body wash, my mind supplied unhelpfully. “Why don’t we wake her up first?” Seth muttered, his nose twitching. “Great idea. I’ll lick her face,” Eli responded, more dog than bear. “You will not,
