More From Alice Hoffman

And that's what i don't like about magic, captain. 'cos it's *magic*. you can't ask questions, it's magic. it doesn't explain anything, it's magic. you don't know where it comes from, it's magic! that's what i don't like about magic, it does everything by magic!
Magic Doe Captains
There is always magic to be summoned at any point. i love to live in a world of magic, but not a fake world of magic. we all really basically have a lot of magic... it’s only those of us who choose to accept it, that really understand it. it’s there for everyone. that’s the only thing that i feel i am able to give to people and that’s why i know that they respond to me because i try to give them only their own magic... not mine, but theirs

The books in mo and meggie's house were stacked under tables, on chairs, in the corners of the rooms. there where books in the kitchen and books in the lavatory. books on the tv set and in the closet, small piles of books, tall piles of books, books thick and thin, books old and new. they welcomed meggie down to breakfast with invitingly opened pages; they kept boredom at bay when the weather was bad. and sometimes you fall over them.
Book Fall Weather
I am a product of endless books. my father bought all the books he read and never got rid of any of them. there were books in the study, books in the drawing room, books in the cloakroom, books (two deep) in the great bookcase on the landing, books in a bedroom, books piled as high as my shoulder in the cistern attic...in the seemingly endless rainy afternoons i took volume after volume from the shelves. i had always the same certainty of finding a book that was new to me as a man who walks into a field has of finding a new blade of grass.

Do you hate me because i have magic?" "of course not." "do you love me despite my magic?" he thought a minute. "no. i love everything about you, and your magic is part of you. that was how i got past the confessor's magic. if i had loved you despite your power, i wouldn't have been accepting you for who you are. your magic would have destroyed me.
Hate Past Magic
Art is magic... but how is it magic? in its metaphysical development? or does some final transformation culminate in a magic reality? in truth, the latter is impossible without the former. if creation is not magic, the outcome cannot be magic.

I find the romantic period extraordinarily interesting. my landscapes have connections with romanticism: at times i feel a real desire for, an attraction to, this period, and some of my pictures are a homage to caspar david friedrich.

People have very specific opinions of comedy. slapstick was an art form in the '20s and the lowest form of show business in the '50s. who's right, who's wrong? who's an idiot, who's not?
