“You must on no account attempt to use the squares given in the Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage until you have succeeded in the Operation. More, unless you mean to perform it, and are prepared to go to any length to do so, you are a fool to have the book in your possession at all. Those squares are liable to get loose and do things on their own initiative; and you won't like it.”
― Aleister Crowley, Magick Without Tears

Und das kotzt mich an, aber es hat auch seine komischen Seiten. Verstehst du, was ich meine?”

I didn't touch the amulet.

'Allow me to make one thing clear,' Amren said, bracing both hands on the carved wooden footboard. 'I do not give that amulet lightly.

But it is yours to use in the Prison.'

By the time my fingers brushed the cool metal and stone, she'd walked out the door.”
― Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Mist and Fury

In fact, many sportsmen keep some kind of talisman in their pocket that acts as a lucky charm for their game. Here the talisman or the outfit doesn’t possess any magical power that helps the player to perform better. But it is their own subconscious reliance on the charm, that makes them give their best.”

“The Calling by Stewart Stafford

Lightning-scorched gravestones,
Leave and follow infinity’s call,
Spring off the edge of Flat Earth,
Know not what lies there and fall.

Silence licks and speaks in tongues,
Darkness the ferryman leading on,
Fingers caress, scraping skin curses,
Talisman whispers the way is gone.

Hit the bottom and scream out for air,
Fill the lungs with each noxious gas,
Decide to rest some in poisoned sleep,
Nourish yourself in an extended fast.
