Magic

Famous quotes containing the word magic:

    I revere the memory of Mr. F. as an estimable man and most indulgent husband, only necessary to mention Asparagus and it appeared or to hint at any little delicate thing to drink and it came like magic in a pint bottle; it was not ecstasy but it was comfort.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    a flying open of doors, convergence
    of magic objects into
    feathered hands and crested heads, a prospect
    of winter verve, a buildup to abundance.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    We’re not blind and we’re not fools. We’re just plain, sensible people who refuse to be fooled by a lot of supernatural nonsense.... There’s no magic in dried lizards and dead chickens.
    —Eric Taylor. Robert Siodmak. Frank Stanley (Robert Paige)
