“I had been taught to look for monsters and devils and I found ordinary people.”
― Jeanette Winterson, The Passion

“Where there is life, there will be magic; the one generates the other.”
― Kate Griffin, A Madness of Angels

“Magic is life,’ and that’s not quite right. You think that the study of magic, the understanding of it, gives you some sort of better grasp of life. Unfortunately, even I worked out that this isn’t quite true; it’s a bit skewed, see? We understand this. Magic is not life. Life is magic. Even the boring, plodding, painful, cold, cruel parts, even the mundane automatic reflexes, heart pumping, lungs breathing, stomach digesting, even the uninteresting dull processes of walking, swinging the knees and seeing with eyes, this is magic. This is what makes magic.”
― Kate Griffin, A Madness of Angels

“I go on writing so that I will always have something to read.”
― Jeanette Winterson, The Passion
