Are you in earnest? Seize this very minute! Boldness has genius power and magic in it. Only engage and then the mind grows heated. Begin and then the work will be completed.

I always liked the magic of poetry but now I'm just starting to see behind the curtain of even the best poets how they've used tried and tested craft to create the illusion. Wonderful feeling of exhilaration to finally be there.

I'm sorry man but I've got magic. I've got poetry in my fingertips. Most of the time - and this includes naps - I'm an F-18 bro. And I will destroy you in the air. I will deploy my ordinance to the ground.

Obsessed by a fairy tale we spend our lives searching for a magic door and a lost kingdom of peace.

Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.

Nature is a petrified magic city.

Man masters nature not by force but by understanding. This is why science has succeeded where magic failed: because it has looked for no spell to cast over nature.

I knew of course that trees and plants had roots stems bark branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself.

One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.

I'd love to do a modern-day musical that's full of original music. To get your contemporaries to sing and dance without looking foolish and for it to be transformational and magical and all those things a musical is supposed to be.

For instance I'm always fascinated to see whether given the kind of fairly known and established form called popular music whether there is some magic combination that nobody has hit upon before.

Music is about listening the more you play the more the magic spreads.

A few can touch the magic string and noisy fame is proud to win them: Alas for those that never sing but die with all their music in them!

Music is the strongest form of magic.

I think movies have much more magic than the theater. Theater can be a magical experience but movies thrust their subjectivity on you in a more profound way.

When I finally got up to Industrial Light And Magic to work on the 'Star Wars' movies as a model-maker it felt like dying and going to heaven.

Even though I make those movies I find myself wishing that more of those magic moments could happen in real life.

When I was a little kid - and even still - I loved magic tricks. When I saw how movies got made - at least had a glimpse when I went on the Universal Studios tour with my grandfather I remember feeling like this was another means by which I could do magic.

I like the idea of movies having a magic element. How many times have you seen an actor in a movie who you know only as the character? It's wonderful isn't it?

Movies are like magic tricks.

I think cinema movies and magic have always been closely associated. The very earliest people who made film were magicians.

What I do is not some magical mystical thing. I simply get up in the morning get to work on time say my lines and do the best I can.

We went to a small lake Bass Lake. It was beautiful. It was perfectly still when we got there in the morning. The fog was lifting off the water. It was just magical. And we did catch some fish 13 fish.

I was so young and making movies going to the studio every morning at dawn was magic.
