“I have always believed in the magic of childhood and think that if you get your life right that magic should never end. I feel that if adults cannot enjoy a children’s book properly there is something wrong with either the book or the adult reading it. This of course, is just a smart way of saying I don't want to grow up.” IfsThinkingWayWantFeelsShouldChildrenBookEndsCoursesReadingGrowsEnjoyGrowing UpMagicChildhoodSmartAdultsAlways BelieveChildren's BooksMagic Of Childhood Author:Colin Thompson

“I always hated those fantasy books where, at the end, all the kids had to go home. At the end of a Narnia book, you always got shown the door. Same with The Wizard Of Oz and The Phantom Tollbooth. You get kicked out of your magic land. It's like, "By the way, here's your next surprise: You get to go home!" And the kids are all like, "Yay, we get to go home!" I never bought that. Did anybody buy that?” WayBookEndsHomeKidsNextFantasyDoorsMagicLandSurpriseHatedWizardsPhantomsNarniaFantasy BooksPhantom TollboothYay Author:Lev Grossman
“Music moves me - duh - and that is like having a window opening on a heightened reality, but the effect is fleeting: When the music ends, the magic, the uplifting, vanishes and the window slams shut. Words, on the other hand, by the nature of how they work, emotions evoked by dint of carefully laid out thoughts, have a more lingering effect.” EndsHandsRealityMovingEmotionMagicEffectsWindowOpeningUpliftingFleetingSlamLingeringDuh Author:Yann Martel
“Magic is that which it is; it is by itself, like the mathematics; for it is the exact and absolute science of Nature and its laws . Magic is the science of the Ancient Magi: and the Christian religion, which has imposed silence on the lying oracles, and put an end to the prestiges of the false Gods , itself reveres those Magi who came from the East, guided by a Star , to adore the Saviour of the world in His cradle.” WorldEndsChristianLawLyingStarsSilenceMagicAbsolutesMathematicsAncientEastAdoreCradleSaviourPrestigeOraclesFalse Gods Book:Morals and Dogma Source: Morals and Dogma
“Man ever talks, and Man ever dreams Of better days that are yet to be, After glittering goal, that distant gleams, Running and racing untiringly. The worldly may grow old and young as it will, But the Hope of man is Improvement still. Hope bears him into life in her arms, She flutters around the boy's young bloom, The soul of youth with her magic warms, Nor rests with age in the silent tomb; For ends man his weary course at the grave, There plants he Hope o'er his ashes to wave.” MenMayStillsSoulEndsDreamRunningAgeYoungCoursesHopeGrowsGoalBoysMagicYouthArmsBearsPlantSilentWaveImprovementGravesRacingAshesWearyWorldlyTombsGleamBetter Days Author:Friedrich Schiller
“We are what we were at birth, and each trait has remained in conformity with earth's and with heaven's logic: Be the devil's tool, resort to black magic, None can diverge from the ends which Heaven foreordained.” EndsEarthHeavenBlackMagicBirthDevilToolsLogicConformityTraitsResortsBlack Magic Book:Complete Poems Source: Complete Poems
“In Chaos Magic , beliefs are not seen as ends in themselves, but as tools for creating desired effects. To fully realize this is to face a terrible freedom in which nothing is true and everything is permitted, which is to say that everything is possible, there are no certainties , and the consequences can be ghastly.” EndsFacesBeliefRealizingMagicEffectsTerribleCreatingConsequenceToolsChaosCertaintyGhastly Book:Liber Kaos Source: Liber Kaos
