Magic Quotations
So let's not use a stylus. We're going to use the best pointing device in the world. We're going to use a pointing device that we're all born with - born with ten of them. We're going to use our fingers. We're going to touch this with our fingers. And we have invented a new technology called multi-touch, which is phenomenal. It works like magic.
Steve Jobs
It takes these very simple-minded instructions - 'Go fetch a number, add it to this number, put the result there, perceive if it's greater than this other number' - but executes them at a rate of, let's say, 1,000,000 per second. At 1,000,000 per second, the results appear to be magic.
Steve Jobs
Real magic in relationships means an absence of judgment of others.
Wayne Dyer
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
Arthur C. Clarke
Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful.
Norman Vincent Peale

Norman Vincent Peale

Norman Vincent Peale
Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
One man's "magic" is another man's engineering. "Supernatural" is a null word.
Robert A. Heinlein
It is the function of art to renew our perception. What we are familiar with we cease to see. The writer shakes up the familiar scene, and, as if by magic, we see a new meaning in it.
Anais Nin
