“Once one realizes that magick works, and that it works based on scientific factors, the next step is to hone one's skill to reach repetitive success. What makes magick so interesting is that because we are individuals, the combination that unlocks the door to success will vary from person to person, yet the main thrust of the work operates on a specific set of scientific formulas that our scientists are only now beginning to fathom. The mystery, then, lies within each of us.” PersonsLyingNextIndividualRealizingInterestingStepsDoorsMysterySkillsScientistFactorsCombinationFormulasVaryThrustNext StepsFathomRepetitive Author:Silver RavenWolf

“I think that has to do with my awareness that in a sense we all have a certain measure of responsibility to those who have made it possible for us to take advantage of the opportunities. The door is opened only so far. If some of us can squeeze through the crack of that door, then we owe it to those who have made those demands that the door be opened to use the knowledge or the skills that we acquire not only for ourselves but in the service of the community as well. This is something that I guess I decided a long time ago.” IfsThinkingWellsLongMadeUseCertainOpportunityCommunityResponsibilityDoorsAwarenessSkillsDemandLong TimeAdvantageDecidedMade ItAcquireCracksLong Time Ago Author:Angela Davis

“Fantasy is escapism, but wait... Why is this wrong? What are you escaping from, and where are you escaping to? Is the story opening windows or slamming doors? The British author G.K. Chesterton summarized the role of fantasy very well. He said its purpose was to take the everyday, commonplace world and lift it up and turn it around and show it to us from a different perspective, so that once again we see it for the first time and realize how marvelous it is. Fantasy - the ability to envisage the world in many different ways - is one of the skills that make us human.” WorldWayFirstsHumansWellsSaidDifferentStoriesShowsPurposeTurnsWaitingRealizingAbilityRolesFantasyDoorsPerspectiveSkillsFirst TimeWindowEverydayBritishOpeningLiftsDifferent WaysMarvelousCommonplaceEscapingEscapismDifferent PerspectiveSlamming Doors Author:Terry Pratchett
