Magic is not inherently anything. It is what you sell it as.
And that's what I don't like about magic, Captain. 'cos it's *magic*. You can't ask questions, it's magic. It doesn't explain anything, it's magic. You don't know where it comes from, it's magic! That's what I don't like about magic, it does everything by magic!
Magic has been around forever, and it's also been in trouble forever. I'm not suggesting that there was ever a time when the practice of magic was celebrated by those in power. Actually, such practices were routinely demonized by monarchs and organized religions precisely because magic is inherently democratic.
Women are not inherently passive or peaceful. We're not inherently anything but human.
There is no magic in all the world like that magic when you sell your first bit of writing.
If I'm your boss, and I truly want you to be successful... I'm inherently going to teach you. I'm inherently going to correct your mistakes. I'm inherently going to spend time with you. I'm inherently going to lead you.
Magic isn't inherently evil. But it does seem to be terribly bad for people.
Art is magic... But how is it magic? In its metaphysical development? Or does some final transformation culminate in a magic reality? In truth, the latter is impossible without the former. If creation is not magic, the outcome cannot be magic.
We sell only fresh fruit and vegetables. I sell no saturated fats or anything like that.
Everything I do is alchemy. That's why I believe in magic. Not black magic, not the satanic magic that they practice in Hollywood and that the deep state practices and that the media practice. I believe in good magic, light magic, alchametic magic.
I sold flowers. I didn't sell myself. Now you've made a lady of me I'm not fit to sell anything else.
Best way to sell something: don't sell anything. Earn the awareness, respect and trust of those who might buy.
Sell yourself first, if you want to sell anything.
If I can sell tickets to my movies like Red Sonja or Last Action Hero, you know I can sell just about anything.
I'd like to transform the system in very fundamental ways, but you've got to do that in every way that you can. You can't wait for some magic bullet or some magic politician or some magic anything to have that happen. You got to get out there and use your vote.
I sell bikinis. I sell comforters. I sell Cam'ron pillows. I sell a bunch of things off my likeness, and it all came from music, so it's definitely a blessing.
[In Mexico] they have a VAT tax. We're on a different system. When we sell into Mexico, there's a tax. When they sell in - automatic, 16 percent, approximately. When they sell into us, there's no tax. It's a defective agreement. It's been defective for a long time, many years, but the politicians haven't done anything about it.
