#Quote
In the magical universe there are no coincidences and there are no accidents. Nothing happens unless someone wills it to happen. The dogma of science is that the will cannot possibly affect external forces, and I think that’s just ridiculous. It’s as bad as the church. My viewpoint is the exact contrary of the scientific viewpoint. I believe that if you run into somebody in the street it’s for a reason.

My affections, being concentrated over a few people, are not spread all over Hell in a vile attempt to placate sulky, worthless shits.
No one is ever really alone. You are part of everything alive.
There is nothing more provocative than minding your own business.
Language is a virus from outer space.
Your mind will answer most questions if you learn to relax and wait for the answer.
Open your mind and let the pictures out
You were given the power to love in order to use it, no matter what pain it may cause you.
Build a good name. Keep your name clean. Don't make compromises. Don't worry about making a bunch of money or being successful. Be concerned with doing good work and make the right choices and protect your work. And if you can build a good name, eventually, that name will be its own currency.
