Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.
“Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.”
Roald Dahl

William Shakespeare
“Lovers and madmen have such seething brains,
Such shaping fantasies, that apprehend
More than cool reason ever comprehends.
The lunatic, the lover and the poet
Are of imagination all compact:
One sees more devils than vast hell can hold,
That is, the madman: the lover, all as frantic,
Sees Helen's beauty in a brow of Egypt:
The poet's eye, in fine frenzy rolling,
Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven;
And as imagination bodies forth
The forms of things unknown, the poet's pen
Turns them to shapes and gives to airy nothing
A local habitation and a name.”
Shakespeare William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Carlo Levi
“The future has an ancient heart.”
Carlo Levi

Anne Carson
“XXIV. And kneeling at the edge of the transparent sea I shall shape for myself a new heart from salt and mud”
Anne Carson
