“I am Pan, and the Earth is mine.”
Ronald Hutton, The Triumph of the Moon: A History of Modern Pagan Witchcraft

“human beings traditionally have great trouble in coping with the concept of random chance. People tend on the whole to want to assign occurrences of remarkable good or bad luck to agency, either human or superhuman. It is important to emphasize, however, that malevolent humans have been only one kind of agent to whom such causation has been attributed: the others include deities, non-human spirits that inhabit the terrestrial world, or the spirits of dead human ancestors.”
Ronald Hutton, The Witch: A History of Fear, from Ancient Times to the Present

“This was, however, no straightforward stone circle of the Cumbrian sort, but a collection of trilithons, chambers, altars and monoliths intended to represent the elements and the signs of the zodiac; as if Stonehenge had mated with a Neolithic passage grave and produced offspring.”
Ronald Hutton, Blood and Mistletoe: The History of the Druids in Britain
