Everything that deceives does so by casting a spell.

Nothing is so easy to fake as the inner vision.

God is alive. Magic is afoot.

Curses are like young chickens, they always come home to roost.

The more enlightened our houses are, the more their walls ooze ghosts.

To blow and to swallow at the same time is not easy; I cannot at the same time be here and also there.

In the society of men, the truth resides now less in what things are than in what they are not. Our social realities are so ugly if seen in the light of exiled truth, and beauty is almost no longer possible if it is not a lie.

There is nothing that man fears more than the touch of the unknown. He wants to see what is reaching toward him and to be able to recognize or at least classify it. Man always tends to avoid physical contact with anything strange.

On no other stage are the scenes shifted with a swiftness so like magic as on the great stage of history when once the hour strikes.

Once something becomes discernible, or understandable, we no longer need to repeat it. We can destroy it.

Nothing worth knowing can be understood with the mind.

Men willingly believe what they wish.

Many are the wonders of the world, and none so wonderful as man.
