There is something very intimate and personal about one's books. They reveal so much of one's private soul. - Dion Fortune

The true nature of the gods is that of magical images shaped out of the astral plane by mankind's thought, and influenced by the mind.

We live in the midst of invisible forces whose effects alone we perceive. We move among invisible forms whose actions we very often do not perceive at all, though we may be profoundly affected by them.

The driving forces of the universe, the framework upon which it is built up in all its parts, belong to another phase of manifestation than our physical plane, having other dimensions than the three to which we are habituated, and perceived by other modes of consciousness than those to which we are accustomed.
