I shall curse you with book and bell and candle.

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

Watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you, because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.

The fact is certain because it is impossible.

All things are filled full of signs, and it is a wise man who can learn about one thing from another.

God is alive. Magic is afoot.

To ensure the adoration of a theorem for any length of time, faith is not enough; a police force is needed as well.

The subconscious is ceaselessly murmuring, and it is by listening to these murmurs that one hears the truth.

Disbelief in magic can force a poor soul into believing in government and business.

Any serious attempt to do anything worthwhile is ritualistic.

There is not so contemptible a plant or animal that does not confound the most enlarged understanding.

Everything that deceives does so by casting a spell.

One thing alone not even God can do: to make undone whatever has been done.
