Catherynne M Valente Quotes
Shadows Are Where Magic Comes From. Your Dark And Dancing Self, Slipping Behind And Ahead And Around, Never Quite Looking At The Sun. Fairyland-Below Is The Shadow Of Fairyland, And This Is Where Magic Gets Born And Grows Up And Sows Its Oats Before Coming Out Into The World. The Body Does The Living; The Shadow Does The Dreaming. Before Halloween, We Lived In The Upper World, Where The Light Makes Us Insubstantial, Thin, Scraps Of Thought And Shade. We Weren't Unhappy - We Made Good Magic For The World, Sportsmanlike Stuff. We Reflected Our Bodies' Deeds, And When Our Brothers And Sisters Went To Sleep, We Had Our Own Pretty Lives, Our Shadow Loves, Our Shadow Markets, Our Shadow Races. But We Had No Idea, No Idea How It Could Be Under The World With Our Hollow Queen. And Now We Shall Never Go Back.
