Famous quotes containing the words magical and/or items:
“Science is always discovering odd scraps of magical wisdom and making a tremendous fuss about its cleverness.”
—Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
“In ordinary speech the words perception and sensation tend to be used interchangeably, but the psychologist distinguishes. Sensations are the items of consciousness—a color, a weight, a texture—that we tend to think of as simple and single. Perceptions are complex affairs that embrace sensation together with other, associated or revived contents of the mind, including emotions.”
—Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)
