    “Magic is akin to science in that it always has a definite aim intimately associated with human instincts, needs, and pursuits. The magic art is directed towards the attainment of practical aims. Like other arts and crafts, it is also governed by a theory, by a system of principles which dictate the manner in which the act has to be performed in order to be effective.”
    —Bronislaw Malinowski (1984–1942)

    “There are those who dance to the rhythm that is played to them, those who only dance to their own rhythm, and those who don’t dance at all.”
    —José Bergamín (1895–1983)

    “O dearly-bought revenge, yet glorious!
    Living or dying thou hast fulfill’d
    The work for which thou wast foretold
    To Israel, and now ly’st victorious
    Among thy slain self-kill’d
    Not willingly, but tangl’d in the fold
    Of dire necessity”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
