“A few hundred years ago there were no differences between magic and medicine.”

“A few years ago if yu said yu were GreenYu were really seen as Red.”

“The difference between magic and meditation methods is the difference between drugs and diet—medicines will do swiftly what diet can only effect slowly, and in critical cases there is no time to wait for the slow processes of dietetics, so it must be either medicines or nothing. Nevertheless, drugs are no substitute for right diet and wholesome regime, and although magic enables a speedy and potent result to be attained, is is only by means of right understanding and right ethics that the position which has been won can be held.”

“A thousand years ago, everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, they knew the Earth was flat. Fifteen minutes ago, you knew we humans were alone on it. Imagine what you'll know tomorrow.”

“A hundred years ago they'd have burned you as a witch…" "But I'm not a witch." "I don't suppose any of them were.”

“The Sun was smiling hundred years ago and the sun is laughing today.”
