“Magic is absurd. It is a system of thinking that does not work and does not get one anywhere," said the friar.

"It works, but it does not get one anywhere," said Vance.

"But it is very beautiful. Magic is an art that pleases the eye and the ear," said Bulbul.”

To write texts this way, one must stop prior to the point of total explanation.”
Jesse Ball, Autoportrait

“... there are two kinds of labyrinths: those you are born into and must escape, and those you choose to enter in search of what lies inside.”

Benjamin Piekut, Henry Cow: The World Is a Problem

Aleksandar Hemon
“If you live long enough, you learn that nothing has ever been, nor will it ever be, the way it used to be.”
Aleksandar Hemon, The World and All That It Holds: A Novel
