Then magic is to us as flight is to birds, because then our magic comes from the dark and dreaming heart, just as the flight of a bird comes from the heart. And we will feel the same joy in peforming that magic that the bird feels as its casts itself into the void and we will know that magic is part of what a man is, just as flight is part of what a bird is.
