“Too many people confuse real magic with magical thinking. Real magic isn't a trick and it transforms our lives. Magical thinking is denial.
Real magic is what happens when we break old belief patterns and have the courage to employ the native laws of the Universe”
― Jacob Nordby

“We are energy, all of us, everything on this planet is made up of pure energy.

Ancient religions and metaphysical schools of thought have been telling us this for millennia, and physics has been echoing this energetic reality for over a hundred years now.

As these ancient teachings tell us, and as physics now echoes; energy vibrates, it is all connected, it has nonlocal properties (meaning that it can exist in multiple places at once, and as such there is the possibility of instant communication and travel across great distances). This energetic essence can change its structure but it can never be destroyed (which can seem like a paradox). Like tends to attract like, and this energy conglomeration, which is us, has a great drive towards greater complexity and expansion of that very essence.”

“There's a lot of loose thinking about magic. People go around talking about mystic harmonies and cosmic balances and unicorns, all of which is to real magic what a glove puppet is to the Royal Shakespeare Company.

Real magic is the hand around the bandsaw, the thrown spark in the powder keg, the dimension-warp linking you straight into the heart of a star, the flaming sword that burns all the way down to the pommel. Sooner juggle torches in a tar pit than mess with real magic. Sooner lie down in front of a thousand elephants.”
― Terry Pratchett, Moving Pictures

“Magic and miracles are the exclusive privilege of those who consistently believe. There is no such thing as ‘temporarily suspending your disbeliefâ€� in order to access such metaphysical wonders. You either believe...or you don’t.”
― Anthon St. Maarten

“In order to prosper then, in whatever way we choose, we need to regain all of the energy that we were born with, and have created throughout the course of our life; energy which we have lost due to energy predation in one form or another. We need to do this in order to first of all escape the mass of the world and all its memetic traps, and in that way find true freedom, and the power needed to accomplish our life purpose.”
― John Kreiter, The Magnum Opus, A Step by Step Course

“Real magic came from finding just the right type of chocolate to make your favorite cookies with. It came from that ease and comfort you got when you walked down a street you really, really knew. It came from eating hot biscuits with honey butter with your sisters at the same kitchen table you'd sat at when you were five. And it came from waking up with the man who made you smile.”
― Karen Hawkins, The Secret Recipe of Ella Dove

“The truest magic is usually hidden behind the ordinary”
― Alexandra Monir, Realm of Wonders

“That is the funny thing about reality, a more reasonable part of you can always find just the right thing to say. There will always be, if you look hard enough, reason to doubt everything. But for now, let us pretend that we are truly insane and that in
trying to teach you my insanity, to answer your questions about the kind of insanity that I adhere to, I must tell you about the un-manifest and the manifested. In doing so you will begin to understand the true nature of reality for a raving lunatic like me.
But I must tell you that this form of insanity is not mine alone, there are others who walk a path that is like my own and the key component of that lunacy is called transmutation.”
― John Kreiter, The Art of Transmutation
