My Life in the Bush of Ghosts Quotes

“Having left this village to a distance of a mile this ghost magician came to me on the way, he asked me to let both of us share the gifts, but when i refused he changed to a poisonous snake, he wanted to bite me to death, so I myself used my magical power and changed to a long stick at the same moment and started to beat him repeatedly. When he felt much pain and near to die, then he changed from the snake to a great fire and burnt this stick to ashes, after that he started to burn me too. Without hesitation I myself changed to rain, so I quenched him at once.”
― Amos Tutuola, My Life in the Bush of Ghosts
