Sometimes, magic is just someone spending more time on something than anyone else might reasonably expect.

It's not sometimes realistic to think that something magical can happen, but I think I look for the magic.

I am a fan of magic and fantasy, particularly when it's grounded in reality.

Magic is the mysteries into which not everyone is so lucky, or unlucky, as to be initiated. It can be affected by belief, the whims of the unseen, harsh language. And it is not. Supposed. To make. Sense. In fact, I think it's coolest when it doesn't.

What others call magic realism is normal and an everyday thing to me.

Indubitably, magic is one of the subtlest and most difficult of the sciences and arts. There is more opportunity for errors of comprehension, judgment and practice than in any other branch of physics.

I think that magic, at its root, is a very abstract notion. There's no real, approved definition. And, in that sense, it's like love; you can only see magic by the effect it has on people.

There is something cheap about magic that works just because it is magic.

I believe in magic, psychics and all that.
