Famous quotes containing the words magic and/or lantern:

    Religion differs from magic in that it is not concerned with control or manipulation of the powers confronted. Rather it means submission to, trust in, and adoration of, what is apprehended as the divine nature of ultimate reality.
    Joachim Wach (1898–1955)

    “... It may be Prester John’s balloon
    Or an old battered lantern hung aloft
    To light poor travellers to their distress.”
    She then: “How you digress!”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
