winning magic desire
Performing magic has a lot to do with the arrangement of apparent coincidences and providing pathways along which desires can travel, or, to put it in more basic terms, there's little point in sigilizing for a lottery win if you don't also buy a lottery ticket.
grateful writing unorthodox
It surprises me constantly that my sometimes-unorthodox approach has such a large following, but I'm very grateful to my readers for allowing me to continue writing 10 or 12 hours a day.
pain sadness long
I AM happy”. They understood what we english people have long forgot. We're not our sadness. We're not our happiness or our pain but our language hypnotizes us and traps us in little labelled boxes ()
mirrors remember made
Remember it's all just a mirror we made to see ourselves in.
consciousness
Consciousness, rather than being something that we have, is something we participate in.
rooms lennon convince
It’s mostly just you have to convince yourself that there’s nothing else in the room but John Lennon and suddenly things start John Lennon-ing!
change hell landmarks
Hell changes constantly but there are certain consistent landmarks which always stay in the same relation to one another.
doors people long
Stop being frightened. You only see a monster because they want you to see monsters everywhere. They've conditioned you to look for monsters in every shadow, every coat hung on every door. As long as we keep seeing monsters, we'll continue to need protection and that's how other people get to control our lives.
character generations exciting
The thing that's been exciting about 'Superman' is to see how the character has developed through generations.
knowing done way
I can always see ways to improve what I've done. At the same time, knowing it's all an ongoing life's work allows me to be less precious about blind alleys, failed experiments, and misfires.
thinking problem enough
The big problem is time. I don't have enough of it to do all the things I think about doing.
dream children intelligent
Then I reminded myself that all intelligent children suffer bad dreams.
real dark two
Superhero science has taught me this: Entire universes fit comfortably inside our skulls. Not just one or two but endless universes can be packed into that dark, wet, and bony hollow without breaking it open from the inside. The space in our heads will stretch to accommodate them all. The real doorway to the fifth dimension was always right here. Inside. That infinite interior space contains all the divine, the alien, and the unworldly we’ll ever need.
girlfriend character people
Sometimes I pretend not to look at my own characters, because that's like different people getting off with your girlfriend or something.
