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

Dan Gutman
“In 1846, George Donner and his brother Jacob, Illinois farmers, set out for the promise of California in covered wagons with several families, including their own. They took a shortcut that turned out to be a longer route, hit bad weather, ran out of food, and resorted to cannibalism (yes, that means eating each other). Only a few members of the party survived.”
Dan Gutman, Mission Unstoppable

Viktor E. Frankl
“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”
Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

T.S. Eliot
“Sometimes things become possible if we want them bad enough.”
T.S. Eliot

Dan Gutman
“They had been attacked by guys in golf carts with blow guns, jumped off a cliff, been locked in a burning school, and had their heads stapled, but putting coins in a slot machine was considered too dangerous for kids. Go figure.”
Dan Gutman, Mission Unstoppable
