W. Clement Stone

Consent to nothing I can say to you, on bad evidence, and if you are to accept anything I proclaim to be true, let it be to fear and hate the individual who would influence you to stop thinking, and in so doing, repudiate your God given right to know the truth.

Autumn wins you best by this its mute appeal to sympathy for its decay.

Robert Browning

Your average witch is not, by nature, a social animal as far as other witches are concerned. There's a conflict of dominant personalities. There's a group of ringleaders without a ring. There's the basic unwritten rule of witchcraft, which is 'Don't do what you will, do what I say.' The natural size of a coven is one. Witches only get together when they can't avoid it.

Terry Pratchett
