Books of Magic

''A place for quotes from the Graphic Novel by Neil Gaiman and the Comic book series inspired by it.

• "All we know for sure is that we don't know anything for sure."
  "That is a particularly foolish thing to say, John Constantine. Light and darkness, life and death. These things are eternally certain."
  • John Constantine and Dr Occult, in BOOKS OF MAGIC #1

• "Wow. That's wicked! Like Star Wars."
  "A strange analogy, child, but indeed, there was a war in heaven, and you see the vanquished now, burning as they fall, like stars. In the darkness before the first dawn, theirs was the first folly; theirs the first rebellion."
  • Tim Hunter and Dr Occult, in BOOKS OF MAGIC #1

• The true Atlantis is inside you, just as it's inside all of us. The sunken land is lost beneath the dark sea, lost beneath the waves of wet, black stories and myths that break upon the shores of our minds. Atlantis is the shadow-land, the birth-place of civilization. The fair land in the west that is lost to us, but remains forever, true birthplace and true goal.

• Science is a way of talking about the universe in words that bind it to a common reality. Magic is a method of talking to the universe in words that it cannot ignore. The two are rarely compatible.
