“Belief in the supernatural reflects a failure of the imagination”
Edward Abbey
“The belief in a supernatural source of evil is not necessary: men alone are quite capable of every wickedness”
Joseph Conrad
“SPOOKER, n. A writer whose imagination concerns itself with supernatural phenomena, especially in the doings of spooks. One of the most illustrious spookers of our time is Mr. William D. Howells, who introduces a well-credentialed reader to as respectable and mannerly a company of spooks as one could wish to meet. To the terror that invests the chairman of a district school board, the Howells ghost adds something of the mystery enveloping a farmer from another township.”
Ambrose Bierce
“These facts are an embarrassment for those who see supernatural beliefs as a cultural anachronism, soon to be eroded by scientific discoveries and the spread of cosmopolitan values.”
Paul Bloom
“Declare and command: “I expect a supernatural miracle today, because I've done what I know will make a difference in people's lives and I am bettering myself in order to better society.””
John Di Lemme
“Yeah, obviously we use vampires as a metaphor for something else, something deeper than just the supernatural. But there's just something about the bloodsucking walking dead, that can say so much to people. There are really so many people trying to get control over you on a daily basis and steal your soul in some way, take a part of you...”
Gerard Way
“One man's "magic" is another man's engineering. "Supernatural" is a null word.”
Robert A. Heinlein
