Magic

Famous quotes containing the word magic:

    Thou treacherous, base deserter of my flame,
    False to my passion, fatal to my fame,
    Through what mistaken magic dost thou prove
    So true to lewdness, so untrue to love?
    John Wilmot, Earl Of Rochester (1647–1680)

    Mistress, there are portents abroad of magic and might,
    And things that are yet to be done. Open the door!
    Elizabeth Jane Coatsworth (b. 1893)

    And thus they sang their mysterious duo, sang of their nameless hope, their death-in-love, their union unending, lost forever in the embrace of night’s magic kingdom. O sweet night, everlasting night of love! Land of blessedness whose frontiers are infinite!
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
