Child, magic exists. There are powers and forces and realms beyond the fields you know.
Spirituality Quotes
Alice Bailey, Marianne Williamson, Helena Blavatsky and Eckhart Tolle account for most of the top entries, so the page leans toward modern and esoteric writing. The best-sourced pieces are less solemn. Woody Allen says he does not want to achieve immortality through his work but through not dying, and Henry Miller, in Sexus (1949), counts sex among the nine reasons for reincarnation.
Two flags. “Any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from technology” is credited to Larry Niven and marked misattributed. “Corporations have neither bodies to kick nor souls to damn” is credited to Andrew Jackson and disputed, which says more about how the topic tag was applied than about spirituality.
Most quoted on spirituality:
On the cold cheek of Death smiles and roses are blending,
And beauty immortal awakes from the tomb.
Go on and increase in valor, O boy! this is the path to immortality.
And rest at last where souls unbodied dwell,
In ever-flowing meads of Asphodel.
A charge to keep I have,
A God to glorify:
A never-dying soul to save,
And fit it for the sky.
This shit is not for me – I don't care how enlightening it is.
A politics of conscience is still yet possible. And yes….love will prevail.
You either have the magic or you don't. There's no way you can work up to it.
