Kindle Notes & Highlights
“You don’t have to teach me how to do what you do. Just teach me—” “How I do what I do, but not how to do what I do? What if what I do has to do with my knowledge of what to do, and doing requires only the knowledge of doing? What would you do then?” I blinked. “I believe you hurt my brain.”
But I suppose a little magic never did a body a great deal of harm.
A magician without an apprentice is like a dog without a bark.”
Knowledge is as powerful as fire. The brighter it burns, the more it devours.
“I have always been uncomfortable with fragile things, like feelings and confessions. Butterflies, too.”
“Sometimes I believe that our lives are lived in an endless cycle,”
“That our error becomes our children’s burden, and eventually that burden becomes their error, and so on. The only way out of it is to break the cycle. Do you understand?”
“If we shadows have offended, think but this and all is mended.”
