Magic

Famous quotes containing the word magic:

    “Without, the frost, the blinding snow,
    The storm-wind’s moody madness—
    Within, the firelight’s ruddy glow,
    And childhood’s nest of gladness.
    The magic words shall hold thee fast:
    Thou shalt not heed the raving blast.”
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “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)

    “The magic of procedure: do this after that and thus before so; then your wish will be granted.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
