Universe
Dr. McNinja exists in a universe which is similar to ours in most ways, but departs radically from it on certain points - not only regarding the existence of certain geographical locations, but also in certain basic ways of functioning (apart from the existence of magic, that is).

Famous quotes containing the word universe:
“Moreover, the universe as a whole is infinite, for whatever is limited has an outermost edge to limit it, and such an edge is defined by something beyond. Since the universe has no edge, it has no limit; and since it lacks a limit, it is infinite and unbounded. Moreover, the universe is infinite both in the number of its atoms and in the extent of its void.”
—Epicurus (c. 341–271 B.C.)
“Pray. To ask the laws of the universe to be annulled on behalf of a single petitioner confessedly unworthy.”
—Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)
“It is not enough for theory to describe and analyse, it must itself be an event in the universe it describes. In order to do this theory must partake of and become the acceleration of this logic. It must tear itself from all referents and take pride only in the future. Theory must operate on time at the cost of a deliberate distortion of present reality.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
